Verdict

Nicky Henderson has introduced some smart ones in this race over the years and JERIKO DU REPONET could be another having joined him following an Irish point success in March. Centara created a good impression on his bumper debut at Taunton and strikes as the obvious threat.

  1. JERIKO DU REPONET (FR)
