€100,000 3-y-o, £120,000 5-y-o, Walk In The Park gelding. Dam, down the field in bumper/sole start over hurdles, sister to smart hurdle winner/very smart chase winner (stayed 2½m) Defy Logic. Won sole start in points (Nov 19) and makes plenty of appeal.

Forecasts

Jasmin De Vaux (4/11), Big Stage (4/1), Remember'hesmine (14/1), Glendaars Fortune (14/1), Mickie Angel (16/1), Master Otis (16/1), His Nibs (25/1), Freemans Bay (28/1), Jack Go (50/1), Cullig (66/1), A Okay (125/1), Stellar Jury (250/1)

Point winners JASMIIN DE VAUX and Big Stage have both joined powerful stables and can be expected to dominate this, with marginal preference for the former. Rember'hesmine is the pick of those with bumper form.
