If Inothewayurthinkin didn't turn up at Cheltenham, we would be looking at a three-time Gold Cup winner, and Galopin would be 1-4f here, so odds against looks a standout price. Might not have been 100% at Cheltenham and doesn't need to be 100% here. Banbridge and Spillane's Tower are not guaranteed to get 3m (and this is 3mf), and Monty's is a bit of a plodder.

Won the bumper at Cheltenham fairly easily, but not sure how good that form is as the fancied horses didn't turn up, and the first nine home (apart from Bambino) were all 12/1 plus. It's the run at the DRF that's the standout piece of form, which confirms she has plenty in hand on all of these.

Coming back to two miles after trying 3m this season and the original thought was to go for the Gold Cup (3m2f). Still has plenty of speed and won the Ryanair easily (2m4f). The 2m division doesn't have anything outstanding and Fact To File can take this.

Normally a good jumper, but he didn’t look happy at Cheltenham and clouted one halfway round, which effectively ended his chances. But he plugged on to finish 5th. With a clear round, he should bounce back. That mistake was the difference. Lecky is the obvious danger, who might be improving but is still reasonably inexperienced.

Third in the novice chase at Cheltenham, then followed up with a close 2nd at Aintree. They were over 2m 4f, so this 3m 5f is unknown, but he settles and jumps well and normally drops in behind the leaders, so he can avoid any scrimmaging in the pack. Big chance with only 10st 2lb. Some of the more fancied runners were in the National, which will have taken a lot out of them.

This looks to be between two of the Mullins battalion, Gaelic Warrior and Gentleman De Mee. Not sure there is much between them. Gaelic has the best form and looked good when stepping up to 3m at Cheltenham. Gentleman ran well in the Topham at Aintree carrying 11st 11lb, staying on to win in the final furlong. Will be there at the finish and may nick it if Gaelic puts a few dodgy jumps in.

Class horse in the race and normally runs a solid race at class 1 or 2. Last time, over 2m, he was beaten when they started to quicken but plugged on and only beaten 8l. This extra half mile should be more suitable and should go close. Difficult to see him out of the first two.

Has turned up and run well at all the major festivals, running fairly well at each. This is a much weaker race than any of those. Blue Lemons is the obvious danger but he was put in his place in the Triumph Hurdle, pulled up when they started to get serious. The most experienced and best jumper in this field.

Class horse in the race and gets 6lb from Asterion Forlonge. If he hadn't run in the National, he would be clear favorite. Not much luck in the National, hampered then eventually pulled up. Not keen on Asterion Forlonge as he's been running over hurdles more than fences, which can't be ideal.

The run at Leopardstown on 29 December is good form. Travelled easily and stuck on up the run in to hold on. Found 2m at the DRF a bit short and then was travelling strongly in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham coming down the hill and then weakened coming round the bend. This will be much easier than the last two races and a repeat of the December run will put him in the frame.

By far the classy horse in the race. Has a lot of weight (12st1lb) but the ground is good which makes weight carrying a bit easier. Suited by 2m to 2m4f so this 2m1f looks fine. Alien Storm doesn’t jump well enough.

Only 4l behind So Darn Hot, giving him 6lb at Lingfield at the end of February. Gets 2lb from So Darn Hot today. So that's an 8lb swing for 4l. Add in that Good Banter has had one less run than So Darn Hot, which means he could have a bit more improvement. Berkshire Whisper is interesting but only ran in small fields, and the times of the races aren't anything to shout about.

Top weight but the class horse in the race. Third in the Kauto Star on Boxing Day, 18l behind The Jukebox Man and Hyland - they are clearly two top novice chasers but nothing like them in this race. Similar conditions to Boxing Day today, flat track, good ground, 3m. Ran at Cheltenham, third in the 2m4f Plate and not disgraced. Can put a dodgy jump in now and again but seems to jump better in a smaller field.

A couple bring Grade 1 form into this. Wingmen brings Cheltenham form where he was well beaten in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle over 3m. Eastern Legend was third to Romeo Coolio on Boxing Day (beaten 13l) over 2m, which might be a bit sharp for him as he's previously run well over 2m3f+. Unseated at the DRF when going well. Definite each-way claims and could nick it.

Class horse in the race and would be around 1-2f here if Bob Olinger wasn't in the Stayers at Cheltenham. We would be talking about an 8l going away winner (going away from The Wallpark). Joint favorite is Kitzbuhel, but he is only a 5-year-old, and this is a tough task for a younger horse. The rest have all been around for a while and are just below the top table.

Third in the Stayers at Cheltenham, beaten fair and square by Bob Olinger and Teahupoo. The ground is fast, so you need something that has won on good. The Wallpark has won on good at Cheltenham in October, and not many of these can say the same. Most have form on softer ground. The selection now Teahupoo has come out.

Ran on well over 2m4f at Cheltenham in a handicap in January, which looks the standout form here. Fourth of four at Kempton in February but only beaten 5l+. The step up to 3m1f is unknown, but he settles well, so it doesn't look like a problem.

Should be a much shorter price as miles clear on my figures with his second in the Triumph. Only danger is Horaces Pearl who has not been extended on his two runs over hurdles but they were only class 3 and 4 - he also won the NHF here last year. Lulamba has won over 2m2f in heavy ground so 2m4f on a flat track on good ground should be fine.

Jeriko Du Reponet was my pick here, but now a non-runner. Catch Him Harry was 3rd in the Pertemps at Cheltenham 2 1/2 lengths behind Jeriko and would have been 3 lbs better off with him today. I don't think that would have been enough to beat Jeriko but would have been close. Seeing as Jeriko is a non-runner, Catch Him Derry is a good alternative.

Favorite for the Pertemps at Cheltenham and looked the winner coming into the home straight, just out battled by Doddiethegreat. That's the best form by far. Joint top weight with 11-13 but bottom weight is 11-2 so not giving much away. Catch Him Derry is joint fav and was just behind Jeriko at Cheltenham. He is 3lb better off for 2 1/2 lengths but that doesn't look enough.

The novice chase win at Cheltenham is the best form. A few like to lead, so he may lead or be handy. Either way, if he gets into a good rhythm, he could gallop them into the ground. Handstands is a big danger, improving, and we don't know how good he might be.

Has Gaelic been running over the wrong trip? Previously targeted at two or around two and a half miles, maybe his class has got him winning or placed in those. He was a winner over 3m as a hurdler, so this step up may suit in what looks like a poor Grade 1.

The Fred Winter at Cheltenham is the best form coming in here. That centers around two horses, Puturhandstogether and Murcia.

Will be receiving 7 lb today, so nearly a stone to make up 8 lengths+, which looks appealing.

Taken off his feet over 2m at Cheltenham and finished like a train up the hill. Today's longer trip, 2m 4f, should help him keep up with the pack and then use his finishing speed at the end. Aintree is a flat, fast track so today's race conditions may be ideal for him. The favorite, Impaire et Passe, didn't jump well at Leopardstown at the DRF and these Mildmay fences can be still, which won't help him.
