Verdict

CHINX OF LIGHT made a promising start when runner-up in a big field at Punchestown in the spring and can go one better with a fair bit of improvement in the pipeline. Hurdling-newcomer Favori de Champdou has a long absence to overcome but still rates a big threat on his winning bumper form. Barbary Master is another who can have a say provided he bounces back from his below-par Cork showing.

  1. CHINX OF LIGHT (IRE)
  2. FAVORI DE CHAMPDOU (FR)
  3. BARBARY MASTER
