PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
OSCAR BARTON is not only the best Open horse of the season but based on his Down Royal efforts could well be the best Hunter Chaser and is at the head of the market for the Cheltenham foxhunters. This should leave him spot on for a crack at that prize. Sole Witness has been keeping good company in Hunter Chases but has a fair bit to find with the selection from Down Royal. Drawn N Drank and Undertheboardwalk can also run well here.
