Ned Buntline will provide Tony McCoy with his final Cheltenham Festival mount on Friday.
McCoy has plumped for the Noel Meade-trained runner in the race named in his honour, the AP McCoy Grand Annual Handicap Chase.
The 19-times champion opted for Ned Buntline out of owner JP McManus' four runners, preferring him to the Jonjo O'Neill-trained pair of Eastlake and Festive Affair or Philip Hobbs' Bold Henry who was pulled up earlier in the week.
