Acts on any ground; ran creditably on the figures but was only third when favourite for the Arkle, in which a mistake two out cost him some ground when challenging; has otherwise been a rising force at about 2m and his record away from the Cheltenham Festival is 6-6, comfortably beating his elders in the Game Spirit for the most recent success; gives the firm impression he's ready for a crack at this new trip; sets the standard and retains the potential for rating higher still.

Leading juvenile hurdler last season, following narrow defeat in the Triumph with clearcut success at Punchestown, and he is 3-3 over fences; easily landed the odds in Grade 1 novice at Sandown (1m7f, good to soft) in December and he readily beat five older rivals in Grade 2 Game Spirit at Newbury (2m, heavy) last month; stellar stablemates Sprinter Sacre and Altior followed the Game Spirit path to Arkle success, and he's a very strong candidate.

J: Nico de Boinville

T: Nicky Henderson

Seems versatile as regards ground; leading juvenile hurdler prior to a smooth transition to fences, most recently impressive in Grade 1 novice at Sandown (1m7f) when taking overall strike-rate to 5-6; exciting youngster who is favourite for the Arkle and has any amount of further progress in him; trainer landed this prize with similarly esteemed novice chasers in 2012 and 2017; strongly respected.
