Trainer Dan Skelton enjoyed a memorable Christmas with high-level victories for Shan Blue and Nube Negra, and can strike again with KING D'ARGENT in the MansionBet's Faller Insurance Handicap Chase at Newbury.

The five-year-old had been struggling to recapture his useful juvenile hurdle form but looked transformed by the switch to fences at Warwick earlier in the month when he jumped fluently all the way and won eased down.
