Glenfarclas Chase (Cross Country Chase) (GBB Race)
3m 6f 37y
Going: Soft (Good to Soft in places (XC))
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneDELTA WORK looks to make it back-to-back victories in this race, as he held his stablemate Tiger Roll last year in a thrilling finish when gamely winning by just under a length. This season he showed his well-being when not beaten far off top weight over C&D in January and Gordon Elliott's 10-year-old is very much fancied to give his trainer a fifth winner in this contest in seven years. His main danger may come in the shape of stable companion Galvin, who proved his stamina for this trip when winning the Challenge Cup here in 2021, but he is tackling these Cross Country fences for the first time today. An interesting contender that could present some value to hit a place is Francky Du Berlais, who was still well in contention jumping the last over track and trip in January and he is 5lb better off with the winner, Back On The Lash, from that effort.
