PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Keep On Dreaming would be a popular local winner of this, having really hit form recently, however his hat-trick bid could come up short against SIR TOPHAM HATT. He has posted two facile victories to date, including over the potentially reopposing Black Dakota, and is being talked of as a Cheltenham Foxhunters contender for next year. Of the others, the form of the last two races that Depalma has contested has received notable boosts recently, so he should not be discounted.
