Verdict

Some potential on show here and with the benefit of a solid return effort over hurdles under his belt, ESKYLANE could be the answer. Gordon Elliott's charge developed into a smart sort over timber and having tasted success between the flags earlier in his career, he could be the way to go. Sole Pretender, another smart sort over hurdles, and Genois, who has showed promise already in this sphere head up the dangers.
