Verdict

KOTARI's stable debut on the level last month was pretty encouraging, and switched to hurdling in an ordinary race, he has plenty to recommend him. Classic Lord is an obvious threat having been pulled out of his engagement at Uttoxeter on Saturday, with Step It Out Goldie one to monitor in the market starting out for Chris Gordon.

  1. KOTARI (FR)
  2. CLASSIC LORD (GER)
  3. STEP IT OUT GOLDIE (IRE)
