Verdict

A few of these offer potential but ASTA LA PASTA created an excellent impression when going in at Uttoxeter on his hurdles debut so looks the way to go despite conceding weight all round. Hurdling newcomers Diamond Ri and Insurrection both command plenty of respect though, especially if the betting vibes are positive. Midnight Soldier is another who needs factoring in.

  1. ASTA LA PASTA (IRE)
  2. DIAMOND RI (IRE)
  3. INSURRECTION (IRE)
