GONE PLATINUM is better known as a chaser but was second over these hurdles on similar going in January and is only 3lb higher. He’s just preferred to the less-exposed Shaughnessy.

General Allenby ran easily his best race at Kelso last month and any improvement on that would put him in the firing-line.
