Wicks Group Cavendish Cup Handicap Steeple Chase (GBB Race)

Tommie Beau heads this field on ratings, narrowly ahead of Grand Clermont and Breizh River who share the same mark, and that edge looks meaningful over this marathon trip of twenty-six furlongs around Cartmel on good-to-soft ground, where stamina and class combine to sort out the field. Grand Clermont and Breizh River are both capable rivals and, alongside Caughtinyourtrance just a pound further back, will push Tommie Beau hard in the closing stages. The selection’s superior rating nonetheless provides the best starting point in a competitive Class 3 contest, and with conditions expected to suit the stayers, Tommie Beau is the one to be on.
