A competitive long distance race and I'm assuming that if the Meeting is on that the Going will be tacky under the Covers.

I'm really keen on Evas Oskar from the Tim Vaughan yard, it has very solid Course form and is one of the few guaranteed to get home up the hill. The biggest danger is I think Spiritofthe games from the in-form Skelton yard although I do think this horse is better at 3 miles on flatter tRacks and so far has only proven it gets around 2 miles 5 furlongs up the Cheltenham hill.

Of the remainder, Paul Nicholls runs an unexposed one in Switch Hitter and I would anticipate decent runs from Captain Cottishawk and Broken Quest.
