Verdict

It's hard to envisage anything bar another convincing success for REGARDE, who left his hurdles form a long way behind when scoring at the first attempt over fences here last month. A 6 lb rise for that looks like a rare act of generosity on the handicapper's part and Jamie Snowden's charge should have more to offer. By process of elimination rather than votes of confidence, Carpe Diem and Abingworth are taken to fill the places.

  1. REGARDE (IRE)
  2. CARPE DIEM (FR)
  3. ABINGWORTH
