Verdict

This will be a good reference point for future races and HOUSESOFPARLIAMENT, who was placed in last year's St Leger, could prove to be an apt winner of what has the makings of an informative little contest. Sayar would have plenty to find on Flat-race form but looked another useful recruit to the Willie Mullins camp when getting off the mark on hurdling debut. The yard has won the last two renewals, so the portents are positive for a bold attempt at three on the bounce. Morgan already has a bit to find with the selection, but has decent enough form to suggest he may be the best of the rest at this stage.
