Verdict

STROMIN NORMAN has proved prolific in staying handicaps on the Flat and got his hurdles career off to the perfect start when landing a Sedgefield maiden last month. Open to improvement, he's fancied to prove up to defying a penalty. Frimeur de Lancray showed ability last term and is interesting on the back of wind surgery. Penpal and Blakeney Point complete the shortlist.

  1. STORMIN NORMAN
  2. FRIMEUR DE LANCRAY (FR)
