Formscan - HAUTE ESTIME reappeared on this card 12 months ago to win on her hurdles debut emphatically and she looks equipped to do the same on her chasing debut. The mare was last seen finishing an excellent third in Grade 1 novice company at Aintree's Grand National meeting and, given that she has always been earmarked for a chasing career, she makes more appeal than Shantou Express, who has yet to convince in three runs over fences, and The Vollan. He ran flat at Cartmel last time.
