Verdict

Ex-pointers GRANGECLARE WEST and Corbetts Cross were both above average over hurdles and appeal as interesting newcomers to this sphere. Preference is for the former, who has always looked the type to do much better in this sphere. Heart Wood is the pick of the remainder.

  1. GRANGECLARE WEST (IRE)
