14:25 Cheltenham - 25 January 2025 - Results - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

By no means a vintage renewal of the Cotswold Chase and L'HOMME PRESSE looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to get back to winning ways on the back of his solid third in Kempton's King George VI Chase. Irish-challenger Gentlemansgame appeals as the main danger to Venetia Williams' top-class chaser with 2022 victor Chantry House no forlorn hope if building on his recent C&D handicap success.
