BETTER DAYS AHEAD (1) started the new campaign in strong fashion when defeating G1 winning Slade Steel in a Navan chase. Successful at the Cheltenham Festival in handicap company last season. Leading chance. CROKE PARK (3) is aiming to complete a hat-trick. Took the G1 Drinmore Novice Chase by a neck at Fairyhouse latest. Proven at the top level. STELLAR STORY (4) commenced the new season in favourable style when winning the G2 Florida Pearl Novice Chase at Punchestown. Not dismissed in a very competitive field. BUDDY ONE (2) would need to improve his jumping to feature. Outsider of the quartet.
