Formscan By Gary Carson - All eyes will be on BOB OLINGER here and it would be a major bubble burst if the Sholokhov gelding got turned over on his chase debut. He looked a real star in the making when blowing away the opposition in the Ballymore Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham last March and the former point-to-pointer is a very exciting prospect now that he tackles fences. He looks made for this game and jumping shouldn't be an issue with his experience 'between the flags'. There are some decent sorts in opposition and French Dynamite, also owned by Robcour, was a 150-rated performer over timber. He didn't make much impression first time over fences at Cork but that was in a hot Grade 3 contest and the French-bred gelding is entitled to come on from that outing. The likes of Torygraph and Zoffanien were decent sorts over hurdles and are others to note on their chasing debuts for future reference.
