Verdict

This has the makings of a really strong beginners chase and, while AMERICAN MIKE gets the nod given his scope to improve in this discipline, he faces stern opposition in the form of Fact To File. Lets Go Champ has also achieved plenty over hurdles and appeals as the type to make a better chaser, so he's another one to consider.

  1. AMERICAN MIKE (IRE)
  2. FACT TO FILE (FR)
  3. LETS GO CHAMP (IRE)
