Verdict

Runner-up on his sole start in France, JACKPOT D'ATHOU again ran with plenty of promise when third in a big-field Kempton bumper on debut for Paul Nicholls last month and a repeat should see him play a lead role once more here. Il Va de Soi similarly showed a good deal to work on himself on debut and is feared, with Geezer Rockstar and Idamix a couple of the newcomers to note.

  2. IL VA DE SOI (FR)
