Verdict

NO RISK DES FLOS has developed a fine strike rate over hurdles and can complete his hat-trick. The 7-y-o didn't win by far at Wetherby on his last 2 starts, hasn't gone up much in the weights as a result and could prove to still be ahead of the handicapper. West To The Bridge is feared most as he bids to make it a 5-timer, while Big Bad Bear remains well handicapped on his old form.

  1. NO RISK DES FLOS (FR)
  2. WEST TO THE BRIDGE (IRE)
  3. BIG BAD BEAR (IRE)
