THE CARLSBERG MARSTON’S BREWING COMPANY HANDICAP STEEPLE CHASE (CLASS 4)
Total prize fund £8900 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £3595, 2nd £1797, 3rd £899, 4th £449, 5th £224. (Penalty Value £4700.09) Weights lowered 1lb.
LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): Fergal O’Brien (46 wins from 233 runners, 20%) runs AJP KINGDOM TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): James Owen (10 wins from 41 runners, 24%) runs MY GIFT TO YOU LONGEST TRAVELLER: AQUILA SKY trained by S Allwood, Whitchurch, 144 miles.
Granted an error-free round of jumping, AJP KINGDOM may well be the answer. He couldn’t live with King Turgeon at Chepstow but that form looks all the better in light of the winner’s subsequent success over the National fences at Aintree. There’s no doubt that this 7-y-o is on a good mark and he is marginally preferred to the consistent My Gift To You. The Wrekin should come on for this recent comeback run and also merits respect, while Sporting Ace needs a second look, too.

DRACO MALFOY has already scored between the flags and his in-form stable should have him ready for this, so he’s worth a chance to make a winning start in this sphere. Karonacho is an obvious one on paper given his pedigree/connections and John Barbour looks the best of those with bumper experience.
