Grand Crus, the David Pipe-trained novice, has been backed for the Argento Chase and is now 15/5 fav (in from 9/4) with Coral.
Captain Chris, also a subject of support, is clear 2nd fav at 9/2, backed in from 11/2 at Coral.
“With only Long Run and Kauto Star ahead of him in the Gold Cup betting, it’s perhaps not surprising that Grand Crus has been popular for the Argento Chase, and a big run on Saturday could see him move out of novice company for good,” said Coral’s David Stevens.
