It is a condition of this race that horses which have not previously run in cross country races are to be schooled over the course prior to running.
The British Horseracing Authority has modified Rule (I)10 and the Elimination & Balloting Procedures (contained in the Race Administration Code) to provide that, if it is necessary to do so, elimination of horses from this race will be determined by the BHA Handicapper. Please note: any horse for whom a confirmation of entry has been submitted will not be permitted to declare to run if, at the time fixed for declaration, it has been declared to run in any other race at this season’s Cheltenham Festival, which has yet to take place. (This will apply whether subsequently declared a non-runner or not, unless the horse has been eliminated from a race, or declared as a reserve and not been made a non-runner)
