Timeform Eyecatcher: Monday
Won, 2m handicap hurdle, Kempton, Monday 25 November
Another impressive display from Paul Nicholls' unbeaten four-year-old Kabral du Mathan, who looked every inch the type to make his mark felt in premier handicaps throughout the season, and the presence of a reliable sort in second adds further strength to the form.
He was strong in the market and made a mockery of his opening mark to maintain his unbeaten record, a shade keen early on but not needing to be asked for maximum exertion to account for a reliable and in-form rival.
Kabral du Mathan looks a leading candidate for top-level two-mile handicaps this season - Doncaster's bet365 Handicap Hurdle and the Betfair Exchange Trophy at Ascot rating as appealing targets in the near future - though it's worth acknowledging he has the best part of a fortnight to run unpenalised.
