FormscanBy Tom Weekes - IMPAIRE ET PASSE is a top-class novice and can follow up his Ballymore win. A debut bumper winner at Nancy in March 2022, he has done everything right in his three hurdle wins, scoring impressively at Cheltenham and should confirm placings with third-placed Champ Kiely. The selection's main rival could be one-time Derby favourite High Definition, who should be suited by stepping up in distance. He is quirky and keen but was only beaten seven lengths by top-class runner-up Facile Vega in the Supreme at Cheltenham, when he appeared caught for pace. Champ Kiely is a Grade 1 winner but was beaten seven lengths by the selection at Cheltenham and perhaps High Definition might beat him for second. Amir Kabir, Inothewayurthinkin and Thecompanysergeant are each capable but need to improve.
A novice hurdle for four years old and upwards
