Verdict

Novices may come to the fore, with CALIFET EN VOL taken to defy the handicapper and supplement last month's C&D success, perhaps at the expense of Boxing Day's C&D scorer Barlovento, who is better than he showed in a hot race at Cheltenham last time. Paul Nicholls has won this twice in recent years so Blueking d'Oroux, who sports first-time cheekpieces, also has to enter calculations.
