Verdict

ZOLPHARINE has shown progressive form in bumpers, so he makes plenty of appeal now going hurdling in an ordinary-looking contest. Sam Magee sets the standard on the pick of his from and is sure to play a leading role if a first-time tongue strap has a positive effect, while Gino Drummer Boy is another to consider.

  1. ZOLPHARINE (IRE)
