The eight-year-old, who finished fourth to More Of That in last year’s three-mile showpiece, was touched off by Reve De Sivola in the JLT Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot just before Christmas.
Sam Twiston-Davies’s mount was seemingly running all over Reve De Sivola but downed tools when hitting the front and his rival battled back to win.
