Verdict

PURE VISION and Marracudja both had plenty of class at their peak and, while into the veteran category nowadays, they showed plenty of ability remains starting out in hunters last time. The first-named, a winner at Ffos Las, is marginally preferred, while Indirocco is considered a threat returning from a productive spell in points.

  1. PURE VISION (IRE)
  2. MARRACUDJA (FR)
  3. INDIROCCO (GER)
