Verdict

JOSHUA DES FLOS shaped well when third in a big-field maiden hurdle at Punchestown a year ago and has to be considered the one to beat with improvement on the cards. Little Miss Dante ran out an easy winner on her second bumper outing and is the obvious threat.

  1. JOSHUA DES FLOS (FR)
  2. LITTLE MISS DANTE
  3. DREAM BOY
