Tara Madgwick - Tuesday January 10

All three Snowden runners drew wide gates, with pre draw favourite Empire Of Japan set to jump from gate 11 while Sovereign Fund (17) and Godfather (20) will launch from much wider out.

Fillies fared better in the draw with Infatuation putting herself in the picture from gate eight with Platinum Jubilee drawn next to her in seven, although Fire Lane had little luck coming up with gate 15.
