Verdict

Following an impressive bumper win, AU FLEURON failed to land the odds starting out over hurdles for Gordon Elliott here a month ago but he seems sure to step up on that. He's well worth another chance, with the Mullins pair Belle Metal and Ha D'or feared most.

  1. AU FLEURON (FR)
  2. BELLE METAL (IRE)
  3. HA D'OR (FR)
