Verdict

FACILE VEGA proved his Leopardstown running in February all wrong when beaten only by a highly-promising rival in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival and sets the standard on that piece of form. Stablemates Diverge and Il Etait Temps can battle it out for the forecast spot.
