Maiden chases don't come much better than this. FACILE VEGA has won a combined 4 Grade 1s in his bumper and novice hurdle seasons and is likely to go to very top over fences too but Inthepocket was only 3 lengths behind him in the Supreme at the Cheltenham Festival and should also take high rank among this season's novice chasers. And don't forget Saint Felicien who also has the potential to be really smart in this new discipline.
