VERDICT: Jango Baie was a pretty smart hurdler, but looked made for chasing when comfortably accounting for subsequent winner Springwell Bay on his fencing bow at Cheltenham. He could probably be competitive over 2m or 3m at next month's Festival but, for now, this trip looks ideal and he can confirm himself a top-notch novice. Handstands actually beat him in the Sidney Banks last year and, after a inauspicious beginning to his chasing career, hasn't looked back with Grade 2 victories at Sandown and Ffos Las. Kalif Du Berlais boasts a similar profile, albeit at a slightly lower level, and is another smart prospect.
