2021 Cheltenham Gold Cup winner, has raced only seven times since runner-up in the 2022 edition; has begun the last two campaigns with a win; beat Hurricane Georgie here 12 months ago, no impact in Grade 1 at Down Royal; fair cross-country effort at Cheltenham; terrific display to take third in Grand National; respected on account of record when fresh.

Acts on heavy; won the 2021 Cheltenham Gold Cup and has always shaped as if stamina is a strong suit; while his powers are on the wane, so is his handicap mark and he took well to the Cheltenham cross-country in December when last seen; ante-post favourite for the Festival cross-country race there which was abandoned; it's ten years since any horse aged more than nine has won the National but 15 were placed in the last ten runnings (six in the last five) and 11yos won it in 2012, 2013 and 2014.
