Verdict

Jumping is always the name of the game at Sandown and whoever puts in a clear round may well take the prize. Defi Du Seuil looked all over the winner at Cheltenham last time before a rallying LOSTINTRANSLATION took over again close home, and although the former is better off at the weights, this track may well play to the latter's strengths. He's taken to come out on top. Vinndication keeps on winning and will probably try and lead these start to finish - if he can shake them off early and get in a rhythm, he could take some catching. Mulcahys Hill always threatened to make a better chaser than hurdler and he adds more spice to a fascinating contest.
