A fairly smart chaser on his day and has six wins from 16 NH runs. 1 win from 3 runs this season, but lacks experience at the higher level and will have a very tough assignment here as it looks unlikely he will challenge rivals in what is Grade 1 company.
He was a good second of 14 in a handicap chase at Cheltenham 46 days ago, but needs to show plenty more on this occasion if he wants to get close to the likes of A Plus Tard, Conflated and Galvin.
Can be ruled out in a race like this.
