weight: 11-8
age: 10
trainer: Paul Nicholls
jockey: Noel Fehily
Verdict: High class chaser, winner of seven Grade 1s including the King George and Aintree Bowl twice. Handicapper has given him a real chance off a mark of 163 having been rated 177 at his peak. One concern is whether his jumping will come under pressure in a big field. Never won a chase with more than ten runners.
Rating: 6/10
