FETE CHAMPETRE doubled his hurdles tally with an improved effort at Kelso on his reappearance and very much appeals as the type to climb the handicap ranks further now sent chasing, so he receives the vote. Crack du Ninian impressed on the jumping score when making a successful start in this sphere at Sedgefield last month and is open to further progress. Mega Yeats may prove best of the rest.
