Dis Donc (7/4), Sayo (3/1), Fine Brunello (7/2), Final List (9/1), Brex Drago (9/1), Stormey (10/1), Paranoid (25/1), Princely Conn (33/1), Never Off Duty (33/1), An Droichead Gorm (100/1), Rainy Night Insoho (100/1)

Verdict

Although it would be fair to say the 2018 Triumph Hurdle was a far from vintage renewal finishing third in that race is never a feat to be underestimated so SAYO is clearly a horse of considerable talent and although little has gone right since he is still only five so can be given another chance here. Fellow smart juvenile hurdler Fine Brunello ran well enough here latest to rate a big danger and he along with Gigginstown duo Final List and Dis Donc must be considered.
