Fascinating clash of three powerful stables. SOUL ASYLUM (4) would be the selection having started with a promising narrow defeat tackling a point-to-point. Subsequently picked up for a large sum by his esteemed connections and sure to have talent to take this. HELDAM (2) won his point on debut last February. Ultimately was only sixth in a competitive jumpers flat race at Christmas. Definitely in the mix. BEGORRA MAN (1) made a bright start last season including beaten in a race won by a supreme novice hurdle winner. Unseen for a year. Could be thereabouts. LITTLE GINGER (3) will have plenty to do debuting.
