ASH TREE MEADOW holds the edge on form and with improvement on the cards now he goes up in distance he gets the nod. Gracchus de Balme made a promising start when third over C&D and is next on the list, although a market move for Willie Mullins' newcomer Hybris would put a different slant on things.
