Several in with a chance but it could pay to side with BLACK OP. Tom George's charge was unable to make a splash in graded events last season but, having showed up well for a long way in the Cheltenham Gold Cup on his penultimate start, he's taken to make his first go in a veterans' chase a winning one. Last year's winner Minellacelebration rates as the main danger, ahead of Captain Chaos.
