Kim Muir Challenge Cup Chase Tips

17:30 Cheltenham
Demnat Silk 18
  • Age:7
  • Weight:11-1
  • Form:1P32/13
  • OR:132
The finale for day three is the 3M 2F Kim Muir Handicap Chase for amateur riders. The well backed favourite is top weight Inothewayurthinkin trained by Gavin Cromwell in the colours of J P McManus and ridden by the top Irish amateur Derek O’Connor who took this back in 2019 on Any Second Now. He’s been well found in the market however and didn’t jump with fluency last time out, only his fifth ever chase start. He could well win here but with luck in running needed I’m prepared to have a swing at a big priced one each way with extra places. Step forward the Venetia Williams trained seven year old Demnat. Lightly raced, the full brother to high class 2 miler Sceau Royal, is stepping up markedly in trip and at his current odds is worth chancing that the longer trip may actually suit him. He made a winning debut for Williams at Ludlow when routing his field coasting home 15L to the good in February but flopped when dropping back to two miles a fortnight ago when he actually ran better than his finishing position of a 25L third looked as he skidded after jumping the last when 8L down. In the hope the step up in trip helps and with the assistance of female Irish amateur Aine O’Connor in the saddle he’s a value play for a stable that won this race with a 40/1 chance two years ago.

Kim Muir Challenge Cup Chase Racecard

Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup Amateur Jockeys' Handicap Chase (Sponsored By JRL Group) (GBB Race)

3M 2F (Class 2) (5YO plus) (£36,668)
-
22 runners
-
4 Places
Going: Soft

Inothewayurthinkin went into several notebooks with some promising efforts behind top novices before not receiving much luck in running when tackling handicap company for the first time at the Dublin Racing Festival. Stepping up in trip might yield improvement based on pedigree, but it remains to be seen how well handicapped he is. Last year's heroine Angels Dawn ran with plenty of credit when third in the Thyestes - a performance that suggested she has improved - and she warrants a place on the shortlist, despite being 11lb higher this time around. Cool Survivor is the shortest priced of Gordon Elliott's contenders but it is his stablemate WHERE IT ALL BEGAN who makes considerable appeal. He announced himself as a staying chaser on the up when running away with the Punchestown National Trial by 16 lengths and, with conditions very much in his favour, the eight-year-old may well have more to offer. Coral Trophy third Bowtogreatness, City Chief, who sports cheekpieces for the first time, and Git Maker are others capable of reaching the frame.
