The late defection of Idle Talk because of ground concerns should have made it a penalty kick for the favourite and he did score unchallenged, but his jumping at two or three down the back left something to be desired. If he is to make his mark in the Royal & SunAlliance Chase he will certainly have to brush up in that department. His trainer Colin Tizzard will now look to give him one more outing in three weeks before the big one, though stresses he won't go if the ground is quick.
He's The Guv'nor relished these testing conditions when scoring at Uttoxeter but a mistake at the fifth last, just when he was raising his game, seemed to take the wind out of his sails and he was a beaten horse at the next.
