A useful performer on the level in France, HYPOTENUS has shown more than enough in 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles to think a race of this nature is a mere formality and he gets the nod to put it all together and come out on top. Mystical Power, a son of Annie Power, needs considering now hurdling following success in bumpers, whilst Samui is another on the shortlist following his hurdles success at Tramore in June.
