6:20 Cheltenham Going Good / Distance - 3m 2f

Pool Value: £1334.26

Aintree festival hero Gracchus De Balme faces a different test here and is opposed with MUSIC DRIVE, who is 2-2 in points for his new stable and kept on well for fourth over C&D in the big Festival hunter chase in March. Six-time point winner Macklin won his only previous hunter chase in good style and is also a key player.[Chris Wilson]

1	Gracchus De Balme Mr James King / J J O'Shea	9yrs / 12st 4lb 612P1- Spotlight	132	15/8	3.10	1.20
Gracchus De Balme Ex-Irish 9yo who posted career-best performance to win last month's Aintree Foxhunters' (2m5f, good to soft) on fourth start for current connections; has stamina to prove over new trip and may not be ideally suited by the faster ground but, nevertheless, needs to be taken very seriously.
2	Joy Of Life Mr Zac Baker / Mrs Hannah Hickman-Jones	8yrs / 12st 4lb /2132- Spotlight	68	33/1	35.00	9.20
Joy Of Life Fair hurdler/chaser in Ireland at his best and 1-4 in points for new stable this year, the win coming in three-runner open at Charing (good) in February; faces a fairly tall order here, though.
3	Macklin Mr William Biddick / W Biddick	9yrs / 12st 4lb 1/221- Spotlight	127	7/2	2.90	1.70
Macklin Ex-French 9yo; has 6-10 strike-rate in points for Will Biddick and won his only hunter chase readily, at Taunton (2m7f, soft) in February 2024; easily collected good-ground open point on latest outing seven weeks ago and remains unexposed under rules in Britain; must be considered.
4	Montanna Mr Joshua Newman / Edward William Walker	11yrs / 12st 4lb 8/042- Spotlight	116	33/1	27.40	10.80
Montanna Won't fail through lack of stamina but was well beaten when last seen under rules one year ago and has not done enough in points this year to suggest he's the one to be on today.
5	Music Drive Miss Gina Andrews / Miss Kelly Morgan	8yrs / 11st 12lb 9/114- Spotlight	133	11/10	1.90	1.10
Music Drive Useful hurdler for Gordon Elliott a few years ago; returned from long absence with two good-ground point wins for new stable this year and stayed on for very creditable fourth over C&D (good to soft) at the Festival in March; good chance.
