Race preview
HELFORD RIVER got off to a winning start over the larger obstacles last time out and the Colin Tizzard-trained seven-year-old looks poised to follow up. The son of Presenting rates the one to beat, while Finistere may have the ability to mount a challenge on his chasing debut. College Oak needs to be on song after a break but still merits consideration.
