Verdict

The race that FALBERTO ran at Chepstow on his hurdling debut when chasing home a subsequent winner over 2m if repeated would be good enough to take this contest with the step up in trip likely to suit. A shoddy round of jumping over C&D cost Quart De Garde a debut win in this country on his first run for this yard, a slicker round of jumping will see him go close this time. Mandalayan has disappointed since a promising debut over hurdles but the application of a tongue-tie and a step up in trip may produce a rejuvenated performance. Apple Rock and Cool Country are two others to consider in an interesting event.
