Verdict

Just a modest start in a race that contains more than its fair share of characters although there are one or two contenders who are sound enough in this grade. One of them would be Dragon Khan who got off the mark on his fourth attempt over fences although there is a slight worry that this trip may be on the short side for him. Torrent Des Mottes wouldn’t be out of this now that he’s given a far more suitable level to operate at whilst Two Hoots is more consistent than most if he’s ready to go after an absence. The suspicion is that JOLY MAKER is far better than he’s so far shown over fences and if the market speaks for him this could well be the day he opens his chasing account.
  1. Joly Maker
  2. Dragon Khan
  3. Two Hoots
