KEOPS DES BORDES has been absent since his bumper debut 15 months, yet he showed plenty of ability when chasing home subsequent Grade 1 hurdles winner No Drama This End on that occasion and is highly unlikely to be lacking for fitness given the stable he represents on return. He can continue the fine form for the Skeltons. Brady Hartsfield has finished runner up both starts to date and is feared, with Old Habits, Skerry Hill and Jardin de Tunis other key players.
