STEEL ALLY is a half-brother to a chase winner and, in receipt of weight from each of his four rivals, he's appealing now tackling the larger obstacles himself. The 7-y-o scaled new heights when going close in a Grade 2 over hurdles on the penultimate run of his 2024/25 campaign and he'll take some pegging back if his jumping passes the test. Unexpected Party sets the standard on chase form and is a much-respected main danger ahead of Irish raider Path d'Oroux and unexposed Hombre de Guerra.
