Formscan  - It wasn't the strongest Grade 2 novice hurdle that Fortune De Mer landed here, but he dug deep and his subsequent Ascot second was another step forward. Leloopa showed the benefit of wind surgery when scoring comfortably at the October meeting, while French Emperor is another last-start Cheltenham winner after supplementing a Worcester triumph last month. KEL DU LARGE's finest moment so far came at this venue - a Listed bumper victory in January 2024 - and although beaten at odds-on on his Exeter comeback, the run will have blown away the cobwebs. An initial mark of 114 looks more than workable.
