Coral Cup Handicap Hurdle (Premier Handicap) (GBB Race)
Another bold showing can be expected from last year's winner Langer Dan, who arrives here on the same mark and subsequent treatment for ulcers since his 14th-placed finish in the Lanzarote at Kempton in January can only aid his cause. However, the Irish have won five of the last eight renewals and the sneaking suspicion is that the Dan Skelton-trained gelding could prove vulnerable to a less-exposed rival. Donning the famous JP McManus silks, SA MAJESTE is preferred. The six-year-old was quite taking when beating subsequent Cleeve Hurdle winner Noble Yeats at Limerick in December and an opening mark of 140 could prove to be on the lenient side. The son of Top Trip may take this en route to success at the highest level and can get the better of the hat-trick seeking Built By Ballymore. Martin Brassil has been responsible for the runner-up in the last two years and his handicap debutant is expected to be bang there at the business end. Doddiethegreat is bred to relish this stiffer test of stamina and he also warrants a second look.
