Easy win at Leicester last month; beat only 2 rivals but hard to knock that run otherwise

Solid hurdles form and this point winner winner is a possible improver on his chase debut
5	Duo D'Enfer Chestnut J:Emma Smith-Chaston(3) T:Micky Hammond	J:Emma Smith-Chaston(3) T:Micky Hammond	158	tp	3-6313	110	124	99	24d	—	—	+3	22.8	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Travelled well to win over 2m3f here two starts ago; today's drop in trip could bear fruit

Two wins last spring and good second at Chepstow last time; can make another bold bid

Respectable fourth on chase debut at Leicester and open to improvement over fences

The reapplied hood and return to fences could be positives for this ex-French 5yo
