Verdict

A competitive handicap. IVALDI shaped quite well on what was effectively his handicap debut last time and gets the nod ahead of fellow unexposed type Don Hollow. Gary Moore's Mark of Gold has a very good strike-rate over hurdles and also makes the shortlist.

  1. IVALDI (FR)
  2. DON HOLLOW (GER)
  3. MARK OF GOLD
