'We know we're the underdog' - bullish Jeremy Scott hoping Golden Ace can prove form-crabbers wrong again in Christmas Hurdle

Golden Ace continues to be underestimated but that does not bother Jeremy Scott, who is relishing the opportunity to prove the doubters wrong again at Kempton this Christmas.

Scott's talented mare has capitalised on the flaws and falls of her opposition to win two dramatic Grade 1s this year in the Champion Hurdle and last month's Fighting Fifth.

The seven-year-old is on track to try to add a third in the Christmas Hurdle on Boxing Day, with Scott keen to keep her at the highest level at Kempton rather than wait for next month's Trials day at Cheltenham.
