Recently deposed Supreme Novices favourite ANGELS BREATH faces a serious test of his credentials here but if he is to be winning the Cheltenham opener he really ought to take this contest and he is taken to do so. High-class flat performer Scarlet Dragon looked likely to take similar order over hurdles at Huntingdon latest and is a big danger receiving 5lb from the selection. Best of the rest may be Southfield Stone.
