Expect another surprise in Cheltenham feature if the rain arrives

Gary Moore won the BetVictor Gold Cup here last month with Baron Alco in these colours and he appears the yard’s first string in a bid to follow up. However, a 6lb rise might be enough to halt him and stablemate Casse Tete might offer some value at only 5 on the index.

The six-year-old did remarkably well to outstay Kylemore Lough over this sort of trip on testing ground at Warwick in February and might be suited by this stiff finish.
