VERDICT: Facile Vega didn't impress everyone with the manner of his victory here at Christmas but he was always doing enough without engaging top gear and can prove his class again. The Walk In The Park gelding was a brilliant bumper performer last season and hasn't really been tested yet in a couple of hurdles outings. It will be interesting to see how former Derby hope High Definition measures up here. His jumping left a bit to be desired on his hurdling debut on St Stephen's Day but he was a decisive winner in the end and can only improve from that experience. Irish Point has already been placed twice at the highest level over timber and he should be involved for the prize-money again here.
