Cheltenham

Friday, May 2, 2025ChaseClass 52m

BARTON SNOW made a successful hunter debut in quite stylish fashion at Stratford in March and should prove at least as effective back at 2m given how he went through the race, so he's a confident selection to follow up. A Jet of Our Own took this race last year and has to be respected based on his form, though he may find conditions placing too much emphasis on speed this time around. Franigane may prove best of the rest.

    Verdict
    Prolific winner in points who started Rules career in same vein when winning this race 12 months earlier. Proved a disappointment when pulled up at Taunton on next hunter start but showed improved form when very good fifth of 29 in Foxhunters' Chase at Aintree last time. Has to be respected.

    Verdict
    Had won 2 of his 3 starts in points since last seen under Rules for W. P. Murphy and, without a tongue strap this time, made a successful hunter debut in quite stylish fashion at Stratford (20.9f) 53 days ago. Should improve and win more races.

    Verdict
    Winning hurdler and fairly useful form at best in chases. Placed all 3 starts in points but ran to only a modest level when third of 7 on hunter debut/sole outing in 2023/24 (for G. Edgedale). Not seen since but has rejoined former yard. Blinkers on for 1st time.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful handicap hurdler but it was disconcerting he bled when finishing a well-beaten third of 4 in novice handicap at Sandown on chasing debut in November. Makes hunter debut on first run since leaving Adam West.
