Verdict

The unknown quantity in this race is Fingal D’Arthel who won a French bumper last time and his form does make him one to consider, the market may give some more clues as to his expectations. Irish Odyssey returned from a long absence last time at Carlisle to turn in a good effort, that was 70 days ago so it’s hoped he won’t be vulnerable to the bounce factor here. Jabbaar is an interesting Flat recruit although his demeanour on the Flat sometimes suggests this may not be the ideal sphere. STONIFIC wasn’t as highly rated on the Flat but his debut effort here pointed out that he has a future over hurdles and is likely to enjoy this better surface as he goes in search of his first hurdles win.
  1. Stonific
  2. Fingal D'Arthel
  3. Irish Odyssey
