Formscan  - The wheels fell off Champagne Twist after unseating his rider at Cheltenham last November with a pair of underwhelming efforts at Ascot and Huntingdon, although he still has time on his side and the switch to fences may see him in a better light. Rebecca Curtis won this 12 months ago with subsequent Cheltenham Festival/Irish National hero Haiti Couleurs and the Welsh handler has a strong chance of following up with ANDY AMO. Progressive over hurdles last season, the six-year-old also made the trip over to Fairyhouse when runner-up in a series final and is expected to have more to offer in this discipline. Hidden History and King Of Answers head the remainder.
