The Albert Bartlett Novices Hurdle is the race before the biggy the gold cup. Pride Of Dulcote is a worthy and strongly fancied favourite but WEAPON’S AMNESTY appeals as an each-way alternative whilst Cape Tribulation is a smart prospect who will have plenty of supporters. Malcolm Jefferson’s runner appeared to have the measure of On Raglan Road when the latter fell three out at Doncaster and he is a progressive performer with a touch of class but this will provide him with a completely different test and he’s short enough. Pride Of Dulcote has had little to beat on his last two starts but he won both races very easily and is held in high regard. He was travelling very easily in a race at this track when Ruby Walsh took the bad fall that hospitalised him and it’s probably nothing more than a bizarre statistic that Ruby Walsh has fallen twice and unseated once on the three times that they’ve teamed up. The handicapper puts Alpha Ridge in the same league as that pair and he’s unbeaten at this trip; there is a question mark over quicker ground but he’s had little opportunity to race on it. Chariot Charger could improve for the longer trip and that’s what we’re expecting our selection to do as he’s stepped back up. He represents the yard responsible for last year’s runner-up so connections know exactly what’s required to lift this prize and was a wide margin winner of his only run over three miles, albeit in a maiden hurdle. He has to prove himself on faster ground but there’s no reason to believe that it will be a problem whilst he wasn’t suited by the drop in trip last time and Weapons Amnesty appears to have enough in his armoury to go close.
