Verdict

CAID DU BERLAIS, a dual winner of this event, has been ultra-impressive in landing a couple of British hunters and the 12yo boasts stand-out claims bidding to give WIll Biddick a huge double in the Championship hunters. Bob And Co is a danger and Solomn Grundy could hardly arrive in better form, so he needs considering in a competitive renewal.
