WHAT HAPPENED LAST YEAR - KIM MUIR 2023
ANGELS DAWN, on just her sixth chase start, travelled well throughout and just did enough to hold off the favourite Stumptownm who moved smoothly for a long way himself, pulling clear with the winner on the run-in but just failing. Mr Incredible may have had a say in the finish if not for messing up the last, while Dunboyne sat a long way off the pace and looked to be struggling at one point, but he eventually got going, albeit he couldn’t get near the first two.
