Gordon Elliott is to give No More Heroes a speculative entry in the Timico Cheltenham Gold Cup.

No More Heroes to get Gold Cup entry

While the two-time Grade One novice chase winner is likely to run in either the RSA Chase or the National Hunt Chase at the Festival, Elliott feels there is nothing to lose by putting him in the big one as insurance should some of the major players fall by the wayside. No More Heroes is owned by Gigginstown House Stud who have several leading Gold Cup contenders including Don Cossack, Don Poli and Road To Riches.

“He’s in great form and will be entered in Leopardstown in the Flogas (formerly Dr P.J Moriarty, on February 6), but if I was a betting man I’d say we’d probably go straight to Cheltenham,” Elliott told At The Races.
