Formscan - An impressive winner at Worcester on debut before following up over C&D under a penalty, Chicker looks a nice type and should have plenty more to offer. That said, preference is for BUD FOX. The Irish raider won between the flags before being picked up by Gavin Cromwell, and he made an immediate impression for that stable when he landed a bumper at the Punchestown Festival in fine style. That form has been well advertised since and he's one to follow this season. The Mad Poet is also noted.
