The performance of A Plus Tard obviously took plenty away from the Betfair Chase at Haydock 10 weeks ago but PROTEKTORAT couldn't have been any more impressive that day, sauntering to an 11-length success, and if Dan Skelton's charge arrives in anything like the same form, he will prove tough to beat. Noble Yeats picked up really well to land the Many Clouds at Aintree 8 weeks ago so he looks the obvious threat to the selection, with Dusart third on the list back over fences.
