Trainer Gordon Elliott has won three of the last five renewals of this Grade 1 contest and DELTA WORK can add to the impressive figures here. The winner of the Pertemps final at the Cheltenham Festival in March before running well behind Next Destination in April at the Punchestown festival shaped well enough on chasing introduction to suggest there was plenty more to come from the Network gelding. Stablemate, Blow By Blow and the Joseph O'Brien-trained Le Richebourg could cause the biggest threat.
