Verdict

Useful Flat recruit TRITONIC created an excellent impression when making a winning debut in this sphere at Ascot and is fancied to shake-up the Triumph Hurdle market with another victory. Paso Doble very much has the right sort of profile for hurdling so he's greatly respected, while Honneur d'Ajonc remains with potential following his fall at the last over C&D in December.

  1. TRITONIC
