The G1 Cheltenham Festival winner JANGO BAIE (6) came with a powerful late run to score by 0.75L in the 2m G1 Arkle Challenge Trophy Novices Chase last month. Leading player. IMPAIRE ET PASSE (5) won the 2m4f G1 Aintree Hurdle at this Festival last year. Only third behind CROKE PARK (2) at the top level over 2m5f at Leopardstown (Ireland) two months ago and rates highly while the latter mentioned brings an exciting novice chase profile including a narrow G1 victory at Leopardstown over Christmas. Every chance. GIDLEIGH PARK (4) scored by 4L contesting the 2m G2 Lighting Novices Chase at Windsor. Interesting option.
