The JLT Novices’ Chase has become an integral part of the Festival in a short period of time and this looks a competitive renewal.

Terrefort (4/1 BetBright) from the Nicky Henderson yard has only had two starts in the UK but he’s already a Group 1 winner and seems suited by plenty of give in the ground.

He has plenty of experience from his time in France and given his scope for further improvement, I’ve backed him to win this.
