Verdict

A potential match between McFabulous and BREWIN'UPASTORM, with narrow preference for the latter after having bolted up on his return to hurdling at Taunton last month. Paul Nicholls' charge continues to impress and will provide stern opposition, while Molly Ollys Wishes warrants this shot up in grade after a recent hat-trick and may feature if either of the market principals fail to fire.
