Cheltenham Gold Cup bridesmaid Minella Rocco has to be given due respect coming here for Jonjo O'Neill but, in spite of that very promising effort, his record over fences is not all that inspiring and he doesn't have the easiest task for this reappearance. By contrast, SUB LIEUTENTANT has been a beacon of consistency since joining Henry De Bromhead. He was placed three times at the top level last term and is capable of giving his trainer back-to-back wins in this race. This is an early season treat and, as such, Lexus winner Outlander isn't crossed off the list too hastily while Road To Respect is favoured ahead of Zabana, who may need the run.
