Nigel Twiston-Davies admits Knowhere faces a difficult task when he lines up under a welter burden in the Hennessy Gold Cup on Saturday.

New Alco will have a break before returning for a spring campaign following a disappointing run in the Boylesports.com Gold Cup.

Trainer Ferdy Murphy is hoping Paddy Power Gold Cup third New Alco can gain handsome compensation in the £150,000 Boylesports.com Gold Cup next month.

FERDY MURPHY reports New Alco to be in fine form ahead of his bid for the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham tomorrow.
