Formscan - The Arkle produced arguably the most thrilling finish of the whole Cheltenham Festival and L'EAU DU SUD played a big part by finishing a close-up fourth in that memorable event. Therefore, it is highly notable that Dan Skelton tries the seven-year-old with a tongue-tie and cheekpieces combination as he bids to emulate the last two winners of this race, who tasted defeat in the Arkle but immediately bounced back with success here. An outsider on the day, Touch Me Not was less than a length in front of the selection at Cheltenham and must have every chance of upholding the form if he adapts to this flatter course. Kalif Du Berlais and Brookie are old rivals and, off level weights, the former can reaffirm his superiority based on a literal reading of November's Fulke Walwyn encounter at Newbury.
