Cut The Mustard27
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Skelton| T: P F Nicholls| OR:  138| D
11/4
Useful chaser, successful twice in Ireland last season, but yet to get her head in front for new yard. Shaped better than the result when seventh here last month and makes handicap chase debut.

Horse silk
Sacre Coeurh11
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-6| J: Harry Bannister| T: C J Mann| OR:  132
14/1
Fairly useful ex-French chaser who won twice over 17f in summer. Ran up to best back over timber when third in Sussex Champion Hurdle 11 days ago but likely to come up short on handicap chase bow.

Horse silk
Vienna Court19
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-13| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR:  125| D
9/2
Fairly useful 2m hurdler who tackling something other than deep ground for the first time as a chaser, ran well when fourth at Newbury just under 3 weeks ago. May need more help from the handicapper.

Horse silk
Northern Beaub,t12
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-9| J: Brendan Powell| T: M Scudamore| OR:  121| CD
11/4
Fairly useful chaser/hurdler who seemed to benefit from a drop in grade when second of 4 over fences at Southwell last month. Better than result last time and this return to shorter will suit.

Miss Amelia18
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-7| J: B S Hughes| T: M Walford| OR:  119| D
10/3
Progressive mare who has won 3 of her last 5 starts in handicap chases, coming clear at Catterick last month. Again ran well when second in Series Final at Carlisle 18 days and should go close again.

Horse silk
Little Lightb24
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-2| J: Aidan Coleman| T: L Wadham| OR:  114| D
11/1
Below par this season, including when finding little off the bridle at Southwell 24 days ago. Has dropped 3 lb below her last winning mark but needs to show more before becoming of interest.

Forecasts

Northern Beau (11/4), Cut The Mustard (11/4), Miss Amelia (10/3), Vienna Court (9/2), Little Light (11/1), Sacre Coeur (14/1)

16:25 Cheltenham - 15 April 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

This drop back in trip looks sure to suit previous C&D winner NORTHERN BEAU, who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when seventh at Haydock 12 days ago and should make her presence felt here with the usual blinkers reapplied. The progressive Miss Amelia is likely to be popular but may have to settle for silver once again, ahead of handicap chase debutante Cut The Mustard.

  1. NORTHERN BEAU (IRE)
  2. MISS AMELIA
  3. CUT THE MUSTARD (FR)
