The eight-year-old son of Kayf Tara, who was Liverpool Stayers’ Hurdles last season, is likely to cement his Gr.1 having only his fourth start over fences, treated the former Cheltenham Gold Cup claims in the Gr.2 Cotswold Chase at winners Silviniaco Conti (Dom Alco) and Cue Card (King’s Prestbury Park at the end of January, but Cue Card could head Theatre) to some daring fencing as he tracked the former before straight for the blue riband.

  • Cheltenham Festival Issue 7
    Gold Cup Preview GOLD CUP PREVIEW Plenty of comparisons have already been made between Arkle and Best Mate, and they’re bound to become even more popular should the best staying chaser of the present day complete a hat-trick of Cheltenham Gold Cup victories in mid-March. Just for the record, the following paragraph from Chasers & Hurdlers 2002/3 may help to put into perspective just how good Arkle really was:- ‘In the 1965/6 season, Arkle ran four times before his third Cheltenham Gold Cup victory, starting off with a twenty-length win under 12-7 in the Gallaher Gold Cup at Sandown in November, setting a time record which still stands for the course and distance. Later that month, Arkle took his second successive Hennessy under 12-7, winning by fifteen lengths from Freddie who received 32 lb. Arkle made it three wins from three starts with victory by a distance in the King George VI Chase before again winning the Leopardstown Chase on his way to Cheltenham.
