Verdict

MASTERS LEGACY showed up well when runner-up on debut and he can go one better by taking this opening novices' hurdle event. The selection hails from a good yard and he can get the better of Eritage who can claim second place here ahead of hurdling debutant Flou Artsistique who ran well on her only start in France.
  1. Masters Legacy
  2. Eritage
  3. Flou Artsistique
