Verdict

SEBASTOPOL responded well to the fitting of a visor when opening his chase account in good style at Kempton recently, form which has already been given a boost. Providing the headgear works equally well at the second time of asking, he will take plenty of stopping. Malystic was in a good rhythm prior to exiting at the fifth-last on his belated reappearance at Doncaster and he is feared most. Gold des Bois and Sao are others to consider.
