Gesskille is the favourite for Saturday's Boylesports Becher Handicap Chase at Aintree Racecourse as 25 entries remain at the five-day declaration stage.
The Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero-trained Gesskille is a best priced 5-1 market leader with William Hill, Ladbrokes and Coral as he bids to go one better than when narrowly beaten by a nose by Al Dancer at Aintree at the start of this month in the Boylesports Best Odds Guaranteed On Racing Grand Sefton Chase, also run over the over the famous Randox Grand National obstacles.
Gesskille steps up to 3m2f from that 2m4f contest last time and will now carry 11st3lb after the weights rose by 10lbs due to six horses at the head of the handicap being taken out at today's five-day declaration stage.
