Hitman was second to the progressive Zanza when 9-4 fav for the Denman Chase at Newbury last weekend.
That was over 3m – and he is better judged on his 11-length win and head second at Haydock and Aintree respectively last year.
He was also an encouraging second to Fakir D’oudairies in the Grade 1 Marsh Chase at Aintree last year – with all three of those finishes over the intermediate trip.
Fakir D’oudairies is 7-2 fav for the Ryanair this year – and remember, we just need Hitman to place for the bet to roll onto Friday.
That’s when runaway Betfair Chase winner Protektorat lines up in the Gold Cup.

This year’s renewal looks really hot with Willie Mullins’ Galopin Des Champs heading the market.
But behind him it’s wide open, with Protektorat an eyecatching 16-1 to win.
Dan Skelton admitted he was ‘deflated’ by Protektorat’s fourth in the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham last month.
But he insists everything is on track for the Gold Cup – a race in which Protektorat was third last year.
A repeat of that performance – Protektorat is rated 6lb higher now – would be good enough to land our boosted special.
Don’t forget, Betfair also have a brilliant bet 10 get 10 offer going now too – click HERE to claim.
