Gordon Elliott is favouring a crack at the Fulke Walwyn Kim Muir Challenge Cup with Cause Of Causes

The JP McManus-owned eight-year-old was second in the race to Jim Cullotty's Spring Heeled two years ago, and proved his liking for Cheltenham when winning the four-miler 12 months ago under Jamie Codd.

He holds entries in the Kim Muir and Ultima Handicap Chase this year, as well as the Grand National at Aintree.

Elliott said: "The owner will make up his own mind, but I'd love to go for the Kim Muir again with Jamie riding him. He knows him so well and the race would suit him.

"He's working very well, we're absolutely thrilled with him."
