Trainer James Owen has made theis race his own in recent seasons, landing the race with Burdett Road and East India Dock, and once again he brings a strong Gredley-owned team to Prestbury Park.
He explained: “Kate O’Reilly, she’s got an entry, she won on debut at Ludlow, she wouldn’t want it too extreme weather wise hence why we put Trad Jazz in there who could make their debut.
“We want to see where we are with the juveniles. Hallejulah U will definitely run, he’s done plenty of schooling, we were keen to start him off at Cheltenham, he’s a horse we like a lot.
“He had a high Flat rating, stays well and should handle the softer conditions.
“On ratings I would say Hallejulah U [has the most talent], but Trad Jazz is very unexposed on the Flat, a filly we thought would be Listed-class, so it wouldn’t surprise me if she stepped forward.”
