Formscan - THE SKECHER landed a bumper on soft going here back in January. Dan Skelton's charge found the competition too hot in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham last time, but he's the first foal of a winning jumper in France and could prove the one to beat on his hurdling bow. King Kubala is another bumper winner to take seriously on his first start over timber, while Majordomo scored over hurdles at Carlisle in March and could prove the pick of the remainder.
