Trainer Joe Tizzard is excited to see Eldorado Allen take on the Betfair Chase challenge at Haydock Park on Saturday.
The 42-year-old handler, who officially took over the training licence from his father Colin at the start of the season, thinks his eight-year-old grey is fit and ready to take on chiefly last year's winner and Boodles Cheltenham Gold Cup hero A Plus Tard in Saturday's Grade One feature on Merseyside..
The gelded son of Khalkevi is among the five entries for this weekend's big race at Haydock and is currently a best-priced 14-1 with Paddy Power and bet365 behind Ladbrokes' 4-9 favourite A Plus Tard.
