Verdict

A chance is taken on useful Flat performer CARDANO, who is having a first go over hurdles but, if taking to it, has a fitness edge over the bulk of his rivals. Siruh Du Lac's chasing form makes him of obvious interest, but he has an 11-month absence to overcome, so Glencassley might pose the biggest threat as he bids to make it two from two over hurdles.

  1. CARDANO (USA)
  2. GLENCASSLEY (IRE)
  3. SIRUH DU LAC (FR)
