Betfair ambassador Moore said: “He has plenty of big-field handicap form, including over course and distance back in May, so he certainly has his chance if at all clicks for him.

“However, it is probably fair to say he has no secrets from the handicapper from his current mark now.

“If things go the way of the favourite Greek Order then he could be hard to beat.

“I know him very well and he looks better than a 95-rated handicapper to me.

“But do you want be taking short prices in 35-runner handicaps, especially as the draw can play a huge role in this race?

“Probably not, but if any horse can prove himself a Lord North type in here it is undoubtedly him.”
