Noel Meade hopes Tony McCoy and Aran Concerto will click when they team up for the first time in the Ballymore Properties Novices’ Hurdle at Cheltenham tomorrow.

The six-year-old gelding, described by Meade as “potentially” the best he has trainer, has attracted significant support on the back of two Grade One successes on his most recent outings.
