MILLBANK FLYER has a pedigree which suggests he'll make a better chaser so he might be worth chancing now switching to fences for his handicap debut. Fellow chase newcomer Fabrique En France has to be of interest given the excellent form of the Olly Murphy stable. Bannister can leave his chase debut run behind and completes the shortlist in an interesting novice handicap.
