Bryan Cooper rates Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup contender Road To Riches as one of his best mounts as this year's Festival approaches.
As retained rider to Gigginstown House Stud, Cooper has the pick of their runners and named the Noel Meade-trained winner of this season's JNwine.com Champion Chase and Lexus Chase as one he is looking forward to.
He also picked out the Gordon Elliott duo of Don Cossack likely for the Ryanair Chase, and Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle fancy No More Heroes as other very good mounts.
"At this stage final plans are still to be decided and we don't know yet exactly where every horse will run," Cooper told his www.racingfx.co.uk blog.
"The ones I'm really looking forward to at the moment are Don Cossack, Road To Riches and No More Heroes.
"They should all go there with great chances but I'm not nominating one as my best ride as that'll probably get them beat!
"Outlander and Tell Us More are also great rides to have, but there is no final plan with them yet. The Neptune looks the obvious race for Outlander "
