A huge galloping track and a circuit always seems a long way around here. That might have something to do with the fact it’s often run in very testing ground in the winter. It’s a great place for a proper big National Hunt-bred staying chaser, and the Eider chase represents the ultimate challenge for them. You can ride a nice patient race here and you have plenty of time to play your hand up the home straight where anyone who’s gone a bit quick early on normally pays the price late on.
