Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup Amateur Jockeys' Handicap Chase (Sponsored By JRL Group) (GBB Race)
Inothewayurthinkin went into several notebooks with some promising efforts behind top novices before not receiving much luck in running when tackling handicap company for the first time at the Dublin Racing Festival. Stepping up in trip might yield improvement based on pedigree, but it remains to be seen how well handicapped he is. Last year's heroine Angels Dawn ran with plenty of credit when third in the Thyestes - a performance that suggested she has improved - and she warrants a place on the shortlist, despite being 11lb higher this time around. Cool Survivor is the shortest priced of Gordon Elliott's contenders but it is his stablemate WHERE IT ALL BEGAN who makes considerable appeal. He announced himself as a staying chaser on the up when running away with the Punchestown National Trial by 16 lengths and, with conditions very much in his favour, the eight-year-old may well have more to offer. Coral Trophy third Bowtogreatness, City Chief, who sports cheekpieces for the first time, and Git Maker are others capable of reaching the frame.
