Verdict

BUCKHORN ROCCO has already spurned a couple of good opportunities over hurdles but he's unexposed and well treated on bumper form, so he's worth a chance to make a winning handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces. The Bomber Liston and Hermes du Gouet are both feasible dangers.

  1. BUCKHORN ROCCO
  2. THE BOMBER LISTON (IRE)
  3. HERMES DU GOUET (FR)
