KLASSICAL DREAM hasn't been seen for a year but this top hurdler rates a very exciting chase prospect and can make light of his absence. Defi Bleu made an encouraging return from a long layoff when third on his chase debut last month and can provide the chief threat ahead of Henry de Bromhead's January Jets.
