Verdict

Nicky Henderson doesn't send many to Catterick but he boasts a 3-7 record with previous runners here and, despite not living up to expectations in bumpers back in the spring, O Connell Street is greatly-respected now going over timber after a break/wind operation. Still, EVANDER was very good at Sedgefield on Boxing Day, attacking this longer trip and scoring nicely from the front and he might go in again. Hurdles debutante Show Promise is another worthy of note along with Irish import Judex Lefou for Tim Vaughan.
