THEDEVILSCOACHMAN was progressive over hurdles and looks set to make an even better chaser judged on his encouraging debut in this sphere at Punchestown 5 weeks ago. El Barra was beaten only by his classy stablemate Blue Lord on his chase bow here last month and is another to consider, while Willie Mullins also saddles chasing newcomer Saint Sam, who was useful over hurdles.
