Race preview
HERMANN CLERMONT has to give weight away to all of his rivals, but his record over regulation fences during his time with Gordon Elliott reads well in the context of this race and he is the most appealing option on hunter chase debut/stable bow. Time Leader, a dual point-to-point winner, made a successful debut in this sphere at Leicester 20 days ago and rates as the main threat, with The Whistle Blower nominated as best of the remainder.
