Verdict

The market should prove useful assessing the hurdling debutants but MEXICO shaped with promise amidst inexperience when fourth in an Ascot novice this time last year and, with this longer trip expected to be within range, he gets the tentative vote to build on that now. Heezer Geezer and Ginny's Destiny, both successful in bumpers earlier this year, are others fancied to play lead roles.

  1. MEXICO (GER)
  2. HEEZER GEEZER (FR)
  3. GINNY'S DESTINY (IRE)
