It was very hard not to be impressed with the way PUTURHANDSTOGETHER routed a competitive field in the Fred Winter at the Cheltenham Festival, so he's fancied to take the step up in grade in his stride and follow up. Filibustering was notably quick over his hurdles when making a successful debut in this sphere in impressive fashion at Kelso and is open to oodles of improvement, as is the unbeaten Live Conti.
