NEVERUSHACON was impressive on his last visit to this C&D and, unlike several of his chief rivals, he wasn't involved in the drama that ensued in La Touche Cup here on Thursday. Alpha Des Obeaux was carried out in that event and remains of interest based on a good fourth at Cheltenham, while Stand Up And Fight (third a couple of days ago), would be a player if taking his chance.
