Gordon Elliott will be hoping to bag this big pot in the help to get his hands on a first trainers championship. 

The similarly named, Better Times Ahead comes here off a hurdle spin prep having went close in the Thyestes at Gowran Park, a competitive affair like this when going down by a head, with 19 lengths back to the third.

He’s a course winner over a furlong further in a Listed Chase, so we know he stays, and he’s off a fair weight.
