Gordon Elliott will run his three Savills Chase also-rans in the coming weeks as the trainer plots Cheltenham paths for the trio.
Samcro, Presenting Percy and Delta Work, collectively the winners of five Cheltenham Festival races, each failed to get involved in Leopardstown's Savills Chase on December 28, with Samcro pulling up, Presenting Percy disappointing in eighth and Delta Work unshipping at the ninth.
Elliott today reports “they are all back riding out but each will have to have one run before a possible run in Cheltenham.
“There are options like the Irish Gold Cup, the Kinloch Brae Chase at Thurles and a few other races for them but they'll have to run between now and Cheltenham.”
