Formscan - Kel Du Large went unbeaten in three starts during his juvenile campaign, which saw him land a Listed bumper at Cheltenham and score on his jumping bow at Hereford. However, it wouldn't be a surprise if he were to need the outing after a lengthy period on the sidelines, so the vote goes to HOLD THE SERVE. Olly Murphy's team continues in excellent form and the five-year-old defied greenness to make a winning debut in the pointing sphere last December. Pioneer Pete and Lisbane Park are others to consider.
