Ultra-competitive but this can go the way of smart Flat performer MONDO MAN who has shown plenty of promise over hurdles to date and looks a likely improver for the switch to handicaps. Alexei has proved most progressive this season and should make a bold bid for the hat-trick, while Faivoir has previous in top-end 2m handicaps and shaped as if retaining plenty of ability when third behind Alexei in the Greatwood last time.
