Formscan - SPADESTEP, who was snapped up for 50,000 pounds after winning his sole point-to-point start, looks a bright prospect for the Lucinda Russell yard after a close second-placed finish to a highly progressive rival on his Rules/hurdles debut in a similar race at Carlisle last month. As a half-brother to multiple jumps winner Tommy's Oscar, there could be an awful lot more to come from this unexposed six-year-old. Junker D'allier, Hasten Slowly and Byron Hill are the likeliest candidates to fill the frame behind the selection.
