Lydia and Ruby unpick some of the big Christmas performances in the novice hurdle and novice chase ranks, including the blistering victory of Il Est Francais in the Ladbrokes Kauto Star at Kempton and those who handled - and didn't handle - the testing conditions at Leopardstown and Limerick, such as Caldwell Potter and Gaelic Warrior.  How have those big Christmas performances affected the ante-post betting for the novice chases at the Cheltenham Festival?
