Oscar Whisky was sent off a 4-6 chance to follow up his win in the Relkeel Hurdle last time and, although the official margin was not that great, his supporters never had a moment's worry as he travelled by far the best of these throughout and won this how he liked.

The trainer said: "I still think there can only be one race for him and that's the World Hurdle. He isn't going to win the Champion Hurdle. Aintree is the obvious place for him as he won there last year but we've got to be brave."
