This good-quality handicap may go to British raider DAME DE COMPAGNIE, who failed to fire over hurdles at the Cheltenham Festival but she looked a natural over fences when making a winning chase debut at Ayr in January and is open to improvement in this sphere. Jerandme was a good fourth off this mark over 24.6f here last time and he is feared, along with the Willie Mullins-trained Pont Aven.
