FormscanBy Michael Graham - ROAD TO RICHES was mightily impressive in the Grade One Champion Chase at Down Royal at the start of November. Although he held a fitness advantage over his rivals, he put in an exhibition of jumping and resolutely galloped all the way to the line after making all over three miles. He's clearly progressive having bagged the Galway Plate in July. If he gets into a nice rhythm here from the front he's certainly going to serve it up to the field. He has plenty of form on heavy ground although he doesn't want it too heavy. A good performance could open up a path to the Gold Cup. Lord Windermere, who was this year's Gold Cup hero, put in a decent display on his seasonal reappearance at Punchestown. He kept on nicely after the last without troubling Don Cossack. There should be much more from him in this race and he is a significant threat. Bobs Worth was fourth in the Gold Cup and hasn't been seen since. However, he won this race last year, but had the benefit of a run in the Betfair Chase in November last year. It is going to be hard to land this competitive renewal without a run since March. Boston Bob's camp have been concerned that the ground has gone for their horse. Sam Winner was rated 147 two runs back and enters the fray on 160 after two victories. More is needed, but he is on the upgrade.
