Race Tip
EDWARDSTONE (2) is a multiple G1 winner. Produced two good seconds at Cheltenham and Sandown before a below par fourth in this grade at Kempton. Back down in trip and can return to winning ways. Top selection. BOOTHILL (4) has been in strong form this season with a premier handicap success at Ascot prior to following up at the same venue in November. Fell at Kempton since but rates highly on best efforts. G1 winner EDITEUR DU GITE (1) dropped away to be last of five in the rearranged G1 Clarence House Chase at Cheltenham however did win among similar company at Kempton prior in the G2 Desert Orchid Limited Handicap Chase. Makes for appeal. Winner of this race last year FUNAMBULE SIVOLA (3) may feature.
