I held off and then completely forgot about the race. I'd thought MC would be sent on and put his jumping and experience - he ran a belter for a long way in the Topham - to maximum use and try and expose the novices but he got a conservative ride and it looked to me like they were prepping him for something.

He's in the Becher and Welsh National (not the Hennessy) so maybe one of them, possibly Aintree ahead of a go at the Grand National.
