Verdict

Zizaneur brings good French form to the table and will surely be winning races before too long. Faldo ran a race full of promise at Warwick and could well go one better here with this track likely to suit. CHRISTOPHER WOOD looks a shrewd purchase for connections and he impressed with the way he went through the race at Fontwell and may be able to remain unbeaten over hurdles.
