Getaway Fred is best watched until showing signs of a revival but Colin Tizzard also runs the Exeter winner Amarillo Sky. Paul Nicholls is also doubly represented with Rockadenn and Chez Hans, both winners at Taunton this year, top and tailing the weights. HEROSS DU SEUIL (NAP) beat a subsequent Listed and Grade 3 winner at Kempton over Christmas with another subsequent winner in third. The fourth has run well in hot handicaps since and Nicky Henderson’s four-year-old may have too much class for his rivals in this, despite a shock defeat at Warwick in February.
