Verdict

For all that he was probably flattered by the bare result at Hexham, ASTUTE BOY nevertheless showed more than enough on that chase debut to suggest that a race of this nature will be well within his grasp. Last-time-out winners Do It For Thy Sen and Trumps Benefit rate the main dangers.

  1. ASTUTE BOY (IRE)
  2. DO IT FOR THY SEN (IRE)
