TWELVE months ago Delta Work denied Tiger Roll a perfect end to his career in the Glenfarclas Chase, the cross-country race at the Festival. The 10-year-old son of Network (Monsun) and the placed Robbe (Video Rock) repeated his win in the marathon, his third Festival win as he was also successful in the Grade 3 Pertemps Final.

Bred by Charles and Jean-François Magnien, Delta Work is a five-time Grade 1 winner, so he certainly possesses all the class necessary to land this cross-country marathon. We are hugely familiar with the big race winners sired by the German-bred, Group 2 winner Network, and he is best known for Sprinter Sacre.
