Big Bucks is unbeaten over hurdles in the UK when Ruby Walsh has ridden him, I know he'll improve for the run in the Cleeve Hurdle. Even though Annie Power will take a big step up in class in the World Hurdle, as Big Bucks is now aged 11, and more importantly as STD rides him instead of Ruby, I'd rather back Annie Power. As The Giant Bolster now wears headgear, he's worth an each way bet in the Gold Cup. But he just might find one too good.
