Paddy Power have opened betting on the going description at next month's Cheltenham Festival.
A prolonged spell of wet weather has led to testing ground conditions over the past few months but Power make heavy ground for the opening race of the Festival a 33/1 chance.
The four-day meeting gets underway in less than five weeks (March 15-18), and the regular going description of good to soft is again hot favourite.
