Switched to fences at Uttoxeter, Kalaskadesemilley found only one too good and remains well treated on the pick of his hurdles form. Chivers easily landed the odds at Fontwell but has been raised 11lb, though is almost guaranteed to run his race again. The Mighty Ash probably has place claims and Alltimegold could also figure following wind surgery but DON DES FOSSES should make a better chaser than hurdler given he’s already won a point-to-point. He starts off at a very low level so gets a tentative vote.
