VERDICT: This illustrious contest hasn't been too kind to favourites over the years, with the likes of Sprinter Sacre, Douvan and Shishkin all being defeated. There are doubts surrounding a few of these, though, and Nicky Henderson will be hopeful that Jonbon can justify a short price. The classy son of Walk In The Park recorded yet another Grade 1 success when proving far too strong for the reopposing Energumene in the Clarence House at Ascot last time out. The nine-year-old may not get the respect he deserves at times but victory here would surely rubber stamp him as one the very best of this current crop. It would be dangerous to allow Solness, now a dual Grade 1 winner following his success in the Dublin Chase, an easy time of things in front and he's the main threat. Marine Nationale has been chasing his tail recently but the 2023 Supreme winner cannot be overlooked.
