Verdict

DONNACHA is a thoroughly likeable sort who is taken to defy a 5 lb rise in the weights for his Cheltenham triumph in January. Jipcot possibly found the race coming too soon in the Plate at the Cheltenham Festival and remains capable of better, with Il Ridoto another to consider from a falling mark back over a more suitable trip.
