Anibale Fly is the class act here and if Tony Martin's charge can find anything like the form shown in chasing home Al Boum Photo in the Cheltenham Gold Cup last spring, top-weight won't stop him. He has though produced three poor runs in top company this season and has his risks. POKER PARTY on the other hand backed up a Kerry National win when coming from a long way back to be fourth over 3m here at Christmas. He's effective over this trip and looks the one to beat. Tikkanen Express is a big danger while From Eden could prove best of the trio running for Gordon Elliott, winner last year with Woods Well.
