Race preview
SCORSESE finished third in a stronger race behind Jordans Cross at Cheltenham last month when arguably producing a career-best effort. The ease in grade represents an ideal opportunity for the eight-year-old to gain a second victory over the larger obstacles. Mon Champion fell when holding every chance at Leicester and has shaped as though stepping up in trip would bring about some improvement. Rodney and Noble Park appear best of the remainder.
