CAPRICE D'ANGLAIS would surely be three for three over fences but for a late unseat on debut. He's been all business since and was already turning the screw when chief rival fell at Huntingdon on Boxing Day. With the champion jockey booked, he has a great chance to complete his hat-trick here. Brinestine made a promising start in this sphere last time and can come forward here to be best of the rest while Fingers Crossed was not without promise on the same Boxing Day card at Huntingdon as the selection. He drops in trip now and can go well if jumping holds up. 1. Caprice D'anglais 2. Brinestine 3. Fingers Crossed
