FormscanBy Mark Nunan - BEN SIEGEL couldn’t go with the principals when the pace quickened in the Grade 1 won by Vauban at Leopardstown last weekend but he’s likely to play a leading role in this lesser contest. The dual Flat winner was a little rusty in the jumping department last time but should be sharper for that first outing since winning in good style on hurdling debut at Punchestown in November. Feigh chased home a good yardstick in White Pepper at Fairyhouse and has her chance although she’s disadvantaged by the lack of a fillies’ allowance. Un Des Flos won his only start in France and ran respectably against older horses on his Irish debut at Fairyhouse in a race where Cork winner Ebasari was a major disappointment. Fellow French winner Delante holds a Triumph Hurdle entry while Brazil, the sole maiden in the field, is gradually improving in this sphere and is not without a chance.
