Nicky Henderson looks to have found a very good opportunity for RATHER BE to add a second chase success to his CV under a penalty, after a very impressive effort first time. Loftier targets surely await his seven-year-old. San Pedro De Senam is proven on heavy ground and appears the one most likely to present a challenge to the selection, though Gregarious took a step in the right direction last time and could make a race of it for the minors.
