The Kim Muir Challenge Cup sees the best amateurs up against each other in a test of stamina that is always appreciated by the punters.
This year’s renewal is a quality field that needs serious consideration. Last year’s winner Angels Dawn defends in 2024 and is currently available at an interesting 9/1.

Heading the betting is Good Time Johnny, a much better prospect than the recent 5th in the Dublin Festival showed. Keep an eye on the market as this horse is declared in a couple of strong races before the end of February and that could have an effect on his standing.
Gavin Cromwell’s Stumptown took a victory in a chase at Cheltenham in January on heavy ground and could go well in this race at 10/1, while catching our eye is the 20/1 shot Rapper.
Henry Daly’s charge was unfancied at Ascot in the Swinley Handicap Chase recently yet rallied and ran on late to finish an impressive second in a very strong field.
Nicky Henderson’s Mister Coffey is another with potential at a big price, and there are likely to be movers and shakers in this field as many have entries before the Festival.
This is another open field that will have the notebooks fluttering on the day.
