Albert Bartlett Clarence House Chase (Grade 1) (GBB Race)
2m 62y
Going: Soft (Good to Soft in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneNarrowly denied in an epic renewal of this contest last year, ENERGUMENE has taken his form to a new level since then and his performance in last year's Queen Mother made him the standard bearer in this division. The fact the race has been rescheduled to Cheltenham is another plus and he should have too much for the admirable Edwardstone, who blotted his copybook when unseating in the Desert Orchid. His performance in the Tingle Creek though was of the highest calibre and, as an Arkle winner, returning to this track should hold no fears. Likely to set the pace up front, Editeur Du Gite cannot be underestimated either.
