Verdict

Best Served Cold, Out Now and Sir Du Bearn are all recent winners between the flags while Poungach was last seen in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown in April but TEAFORTHREE should be winning this if retaining most of his ability. He has his first run in this sphere but started joint favourite for last year's Grand National having finished third in the great race at Aintree in 2013. He was prominent when unseating his rider at The Chair but is normally a sound jumper and connections will be eyeing bigger prizes in the spring.
