Verdict

WISEGUY looked a nice prospect when landing a bumper 10 months ago and there's no obvious reason to think he won't take to hurdling, so he's preferred to Datsalrightgino, who is also having his first go in this sphere. Of those with experience over timber, Calidad is the pick.

  1. WISEGUY (IRE)
  2. DATSALRIGHTGINO (GER)
  3. CALIDAD (IRE)
