I rate SDC highly, this weekend may shed more light on his true level. BW ticks all the boxes for me also.https://community.betfair.com/cheltenham2011/go/thread/view/113609/29521627/how-do-you-rate-bobs-worths-gold-cup-prospects-now?post_id=526655441#526655441Succinctly put Steeple.

If Kauto Star, Imperial Commander and Denman were around at or near their best then Bobs Worth would need to find quite a bit, but against the likely opposition he looks well clear to me.
