Verdict

To all intents and purposes, barring accidents this contest is effectively a match. Things didn't quite go fully to plan for WOTZIZNAME last season, but the suspicion is that he probably has slightly more to offer over fences than Coastal Tiep. The latter is a complete newcomer to the chasing ranks, and whilst a fair sort, he was found slightly wanting in the better novice hurdles last season. Therefore, with the benefit of some experience of chasing, coupled with an Exeter (hurdles) success on his CV, the Harry Fry trained runner is a much more confident pick.
  1. Wotzizname
  2. Coastal Tiep
  3. Pomme
