Elliott says Heroes "ticks all the boxes" Gordon Elliott believes his RSA Chase contender No More Heroes "ticks all the boxes" Unbeaten in three starts over fences, two of those in Grade One company, he could hardly have been more impressive this season. The one slight negative is that he was beaten at Cheltenham last season in the Albert Bartlett and Elliott is aware that main market rival More Of That has a strong affinity for Prestbury Park. "I think he ticks all the boxes," he told At The Races. "Obviously I've never won the race but he settles, he jumps, he stays - he's very professional. "He's had three runs over fences and won two Grade Ones, he looks the pick of the Irish going for the race, anyway. Obviously it sometimes doesn't work out like that when you get there. "I have massive respect for More Of That. He's been to Cheltenham four times and won each one, but I couldn't be happier with mine to be honest. "He'll have a spin at Leopardstown on Sunday and one more away from home. We'll just keep him ticking over and keep him fit and healthy. "If you go through the race, there won't be many in there with more than three runs. A couple of years ago I'd have probably given him another run but I'm a little more patient now and can just train him for Cheltenham."
