Top Of The Bill won three times in 2024, scoring over three miles in generally testing conditions at Exeter twice in a Limited Handicap Chase at Wetherby last November.

Despite being pulled up in the London National at Sandown this time last year, he resumed winning ways in the 'West Wales National' Handicap Chase at Ffos Las on his final start of the campaign in March.

He resumed where he left off on his seasonal return over course and distance, making almost all in the Best Odds On The Betfair Exchange Handicap Chase, before scoring by an impressive seven lengths from the reopposing Anthony Honeyball-trained Saladins Son.
