CHASING FIRE proved he still retained plenty of ability when third in a 2½m handicap here at the end of last season and could well have scope to progress as a staying hurdler. He appeals most re-united with Sean Bowen, with Idem feared most in first-time headgear, having finished a well-backed runner-up in this race on reappearance last year. Very smart chaser The Real Whacker will have bigger targets ahead but isn't discounted if Brian Hughes is allowed to dictate the pace.
