Analyis of the race

Another good round of jumping from SOU'WESTER as he made it three wins from as many recent runs. A rise of 19lb for his previous two wins did not stop him and his fencing will always keep him involved as it did here when the runner-up came to challenge. He seems to handle most types of ground so there might be a bit more to come.

Mango Catcher came here in good form so the race should work out as the front two were well clear of the others. He bumped into an improver here and should be found another winning opportunity in the short term.

Charming Oscar was never competitive.
