Analyis of the race

SESAME RAMBLER overcame some indifferent jumping to win this decisively enough in the end, his task having been eased by the departure three from home of Urban Rebel. A winner over hurdles and fences for a top stable in 2006 and lightly-raced subsequently, the grey was rewarded for his persistence as he harried long time leader Highway Oak into submission at the final fence.

Watership Down stepped-up on recent efforts under rules to finish on the heels on the principals.

Ilabon, who looked a threat when making a move at the bottom bend, weakened in the straight.
