Verdict

IBLEO is a low-mileage 8-y-o who has improved again in defeat over fences this term, running a fine race without proving a match for Sky Pirate at Cheltenham in December. The type to progress further, he earns the vote to come out on top. Moonlighter and Early Du Lemo are fancied to pose the lead threats.

  1. IBLEO (FR)
  2. MOONLIGHTER
  3. EARLY DU LEMO (FR)
