Fakir D'oudairies
Enda Bolgert boasts a terrific record in this race and FAKIR D'OUDAIRIES could be another for the yard. A high-class chaser a few seasons back, he is interesting on his second start in a cross-country chase on the back of a couple of spins in open points in November, which will have blown away the cobwebs. Last year's winner Vanillier looks a big danger and is second choice ahead of the Gordon Elliott-trained duo, The Goffer and Conflated.

Very smart chaser on his day. Thirteenth of 15 in a cross-country handicap chase (9/1) at Cheltenham (29.2f, good to soft) on latest start under Rules 13 months ago.
