Verdict

A few with potential but WONDERFUL EAGLE looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so is taken to make it 3-3 in this sphere. Paul Nicholls' Individualiste has a long absence to overcome but is still feared most, with Little Else and Kapitaliste also in the mix in an intriguing event.

  1. WONDERFUL EAGLE (GER)
  2. INDIVIDUALISTE (FR)
  3. LITTLE ELSE
