Formscan - Sixmilebridge wasn't far short of the best as a novice hurdler and claimed the scalp of the well-touted Derryhassen Paddy on his chasing debut at Ayr. That experience will stand him in good stead, but he does have a penalty and CALIFET EN VOL has the potential to go far in this discipline. Nicky Henderson's six-year-old was only three lengths behind The New Lion just over a year ago and although he has been off since letting down favourite-backers in an Aintree Grade 1 back in the spring, his previous Huntingdon defeat of No Questions Asked reads well. Royal Infantry is another newcomer to fences with the talent to get involved.
