Verdict

SANOSUKE has run up to his best when second at this C&D on his last 2 starts, collared only near the finish in May, and the 5-y-o can pick up where he left off to gain a first success over hurdles. He is taken to get the better of Uncle Bert, who isn't taken lightly on his handicap debut, while Andys Flame also merits consideration.

  1. SANOSUKE (IRE)
