Road To Riches a ‘stupid’ price, says Noel Meade
Having struck twice at the highest level last season before finishing third in the Cheltenham Gold Cup, there is little doubt the nine-year-old brings the strongest form to the table and he looked as good as ever when winning on his seasonal return in November’s Clonmel Oil Chase.
However, he was unable to defend his crown in the Lexus Chase due to being under the weather over the Festive period and although Meade is confident his stable star is back firing on all cylinders following a pleasing racecourse gallop at Punchestown last Sunday, he feels bookmakers may have underestimated his task this weekend.
