THE PREDICTION

The Paddy Power Gold Cup looks like a wide-open affair with numerous chances in the field of 20 horses. Al Dancer is typically a strong starter come a new campaign and coming into this under a new yard, the eight-year-old has strong claims towards the top of the market. He was third in this race last year and did so off 5lbs higher than his mark here. Lalor also comes into this under a new yard having moved to Paul Nicholls’ stable and looks to be a real contender having performed well off a higher mark last year, especially as he comes into this on the back of a wind op. Protektorat is another intriguing entry having improved over fences last year and has a Grade 1 victory under his belt. Dan Skelton’s horse also looks be well-treated and comes into this off what appears to be a very winnable mark.

Tip: LALOR e/w (6/1)
