FormscanBy John O'Riordan - FACILE VEGA should be good enough to end his season on a high, having redeemed his huge reputation when an excellent second in the Supreme Novices Hurdle last month. Some judges questioned his capabilities following a shock defeat at Leopardstown in February but the six-year-old silenced the doubters with a big performance. In fact, only for a mistake at the final flight, he may well have gone much closer. A Grade 1 bumper winner at this meeting last year, he looks the horse to beat. Stablemate Diverge outran odds of 25/1 when keeping on well to take third place in the aforementioned Cheltenham race. Given his lack of hurdling experience, the Chris Jones-owned gelding is entitled to show improvement. Il Etait Temps could only manage fifth in the Supreme Novices but is a real contender on the form of his Dublin Racing Festival win on his penultimate start.
