Verdict
KALMANN, a winner over timber on testing ground at Auteuil last November, had his first start for Willie Mullins in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham but he's been bought for chasing and is expected to make a winning start. Golanbrook will prove a test as though he's yet to score over fences in eight starts he's come up against strong opposition. Worldor, twice a winner over hurdles at this time a year ago, made a reasonable debut over fences at Navan last month and should win his share of races but Teelin Star needs his jumping problems ironing out if he's to fulfil his potential.
