More Of That ready to rock in RSA

More Of That can get the better of Irish raider No More Heroes to land the RSA Chase at the Cheltenham Festival (14:10).

The Jonjo O’Neill trained gelding has already tasted success at the Festival having landed to 2014 running of the World Hurdle.

More Of That put an end to Annie Power’s unbeaten record in that contest, and has looked a potential superstar chaser in the making in winning his two starts over the obstacles this season.

Course form a big plus

Cheltenham Saturday

Both those successes have come at this Prestbury Park venue, and in the last of them the eight-year-old jumped really well and pulled readily clear to beat Sametegal by 13 lengths.

It was a most taking performance, and the runner-up has since come out and won a competitive handicap chase at Newbury to give the form a solid look.

More Of That has also shown an ability to be clever at a fence when meeting one on a wrong stride, and that is a great attribute for a race of this nature.

The son of Beneficial also remains open to further progress after just eight starts under rules, and is 3-3 for jockey Barry Geraghty.

Heroes a big danger

No More Heroes

No More Heroes has won both his three starts over fences in tremendous style, and rates the obvious danger.

The Gordon Elliott trained six-year-old developed into a useful staying hurdler last season, winning twice and finishing an unlucky in-running third to Martello Tower in the Grade 1 Albert Bartlett Novices’ Hurdle at this meeting.

Connections always maintained that his future would lie over the larger obstacles, and after scoring easily on chasing debut at Punchestown the gelding put in a scintillating performance to land the Grade 1 Drinmore Novices’ Chase over 2m 4f at Fairyhouse.

Superb jumper with more to offer

HORSE RACING

No More Heroes put in a superb round of jumping to beat Monksland with far more in hand than the 2 1/2 length winning margin suggests.

The Gigginstown House Stud owned has since gone on to coast home by nine lengths in the Grade 1 Neville Hotels Novice Chase at Leopardstown, and No More Heroes is a really likeable type who has plenty more big race wins in him.

Of the others, Scottish raider Seeyouatmidnight is a tough front running sort who has won three of his four starts over fences and looks sure to go well.

However, the eight-year-old could find himself a sitting target and lacks the turn of foot possessed by both More Of That and No More Heroes.
