BALKO SAINT has done very little wrong over hurdles and his mark looks manageable based on his Kempton listed win in the autumn so he might be worth siding with to bounce back from a lesser run over fences in France since. Cormier and Irish-raider Autumn Evening are put up as the main threats, although Metier would also be a major player if the ground went soft.
