FormscanBy Gary Carson - The fact that MELON already has a chase run under his belt this season looks a big plus and he can get off the mark over fences now. The dual Champion Hurdle runner-up lost little in defeat on his debut over fences when chasing home Fakir D'oudairies at Navan and that rival has franked the form with a Grade 1 success since. City Island is obviously a fascinating rival on his chase debut and seasonal return. He was a good winner of the Ballymore Novices Hurdle at Cheltenham last season but didn't run up to form at Punchestown subsequently. This ground will be his in favour but he might need further than this in time to be seen at his best. Chosen Mate may have a bit to find on hurdles form but is another one to note on his chasing debut. He'll probably find easier opportunities after this.
