Alice Plunkett believes Mister Fisher will prove much better than a handicapper

The ITV Racing presenter says Nicky Henderson chaser can give fans a fine start

I'll start with McFabulousfor Paul Nicholls as I was really impressed with his win in the Persian War last month and he looks like he is going to have a really exciting season over hurdles.

Nicky Henderson thinks a lot of Mister Fisher. He was beaten only four and a quarter lengths behind Samcro in the Marsh and hopefully he can get his season off to a good start. Saturday should be the last time we see him in a handicap.

Riders Onthe Storm was unlucky in the Ryanair Chase. He'll be campaigned quite ambitiously and looked so exciting last season. Sceau Royal has already had a couple of nice wins first at Ffos Las and then in the Elite Hurdle on Saturday. It'll be interesting to see where the in-form Alan King sends him.

Copperhead looks a lovely, big staying chaser who should have a good campaign for the Colin Tizzard team and the Ladbrokes Trophy looks to be next.

The Henry de Bromhead-trained Put The Kettle On looks like she has a bit of class, as has Cyrname who could not have been any more impressive in the Charlie Hall at Wetherby.

Rouge Vif and Honest Vic started off their seasons with good wins at Cheltenham and are worth following for the rest of the season.

Cornerstone Lad has been a star for Micky Hammond and he has shown his Fighting Fifth win was not a complete fluke. He's run well on the Flat recently and can have a good season.
