SCOPE TO IMPROVE showed plenty of ability in bumpers, having still been on the bridle when meeting trouble in a Grade 2 at Aintree when last seen, and he's fancied to make a winning start over hurdles. Big Dispute arrives in good heart and should go well under a positive ride back down in trip, while If You Believe shaped much better than the result on his debut and is one to note if supported on hurdles bow.
