Verdict

Though a five-times winner over fences, the 11-year-old Cheltenam De Vaige is 0-14 over hurdles. Franz Klammer has a similar profile but is 0-21 over the smaller obstacles. JEEPYDOFF MEEL is no world-beater having won just once over timber so far. He also carries a penalty but has to be the selection in this by default.
