Verdict
The case for reigning Aintree and Stratford champion hunter Gracchus De Balme isn't at all diminished by his absence since May, with match-fitness usually taken as a given for one from the Joe O'Shea yard. There may nevertheless be some mileage in opposing him with younger stablemate ST CUTHBERT'S CAVE, evidently still progressing and with recent demonstrations of his versatility encompassing many going types. Take All and Java Point interest the most among the phalanx of previous course winners. [Jeremy Grayson]
