Mongey Communications La Touche Cup Cross Country Chase
4m 2f
Going: Good to Yielding (Yielding in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneSHADY OPERATOR was well beaten at Cheltenham but is better suited to good ground and has already won twice over these banks. He stays well, has winning form at 3m2f and represents a formidable combination in these races. Tout Est Permis was pulled up at Cheltenham, having finished behind the selection here in February. A one-time smart chaser, he is 4lb better off with the selection today and should figure prominently if replicating his February form. Singing Banjo won last year's renewal and has a pipe-opener at Tramore recently but is now a 12-year-old. Neverushacon (fourth), Blast Of Koeman (fifth), Super Citizen (sixth), 15-year-old Ballyboker Bridge (seventh) and Call It Magic (eighth) were behind the selection last November. Go Another One, a 13-time winner, is interesting on banks debut.
