'The handicapper has given him a chance'

Frodon and Enrilo are Paul Nicholls-trained stablemates. They are going to the Badger Beer at Wincanton. The ground at Down Royal is too soft for Frodon to run there. Enrailo has been trained with the race in mind since his summer break. Nicholl's believes both Froon and enrail will do well. He thought Enrolin had a chance in the bet365 Gold Cup last season.

Lord Accord won at Cheltenham last month. Neil Mulholland won the race in 2014 with The Young Master. Lord Accord is in good shape and is not going up in weight. Richie McLernon rode Lord Accord at the Chelenham.

Harry Potter's trainer Alan King is hoping his horse will be in the mix again. Kim Bailey's El Presente disappointed at Chepstow last time but he's back on a right-handed track. Tom Lacey's Neville's Cross is in good form and he hopes for a better run at Wincanton. Emma Lavelle's Irish Prophecy has trouble with his feet and has suffered with corns. Nigel Twiston-Davies' Rocco is off a lower mark than when winning this race last year. Ben Pauling's Slipway won't run unless there's a lot of rain. Christian Williams' Cap Du Nord is 2lb out of the weights.
