Peddler X back in the mix
Another fascinating contender in line for the Fighting Fifth is the Donald McCain-trained Supreme Novices' Hurdle hero Cinders And Ashes.
McCain said: "He's good - I'm very happy with him. We're aiming for the Fighting Fifth at the moment, but we're a long way off there yet. It's early days, but he's in good nick."
A return to hurdling beckons for 2011 Champion runner-up Peddlers Cross following a mixed season novice chasing last term.
McCain went on: "He's going back over hurdles and I'd say we'd probably start him off in the Ascot Hurdle over two and a half miles. That's where we're going at this stage. It's all good with him at the moment.".
