Formscan - Dan Skelton saddles no less than five, including Cheltenham Festival heroes Madara and Supremely West. The former is presumably using this before going back over fences in the near future, while the latter is expected to want further. Therefore, the vote goes to SANILAM. A three-time hurdle winner last season, he can be forgiven his final run of the campaign at Ayr and returns off what still appears to be a fair mark. Others to consider include Perseus Way and Wise Eagle.
