Top-class mare EPATANTE used this race as a successful stepping stone to Champion Hurdle glory last season and more of the same is very likely following a highly-polished display in the Fighting Fifth on reappearance. Silver Streak and Ballyandy chased home the selection 12 months ago and that scenario is envisaged again.
