Hurdle/Bumper: Soft. Chase: soft to heavy View all races

Formscan By Tom Weekes - CHART TOPPER was Grade 3-placed at Aintree last April and can build on his recent chase debut, over today’s course. An able stayer, the selection finished a useful third here at the 2025 summer festival and while well enough held earlier this month, will be better suited by reverting back up to this distance. Four-time winner De Capo Glory has been freshened up since a disappointing effort in July and while a five-race maiden over fences, has some useful form in this sphere. Will Do returned to form at Listowel while Mint Boy was a capable type but is long absent. Lengaruka is Derek O’Connor’s first runner as a trainer and faces a tough task on chase debut.
