Verdict

The vote goes to THE WISE TRAVELLER, who made every post a winning one back in this sphere at Huntingdon on his second start for this yard and a 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going in again. Copshill Lad is 0-7 over hurdles but he has lost little caste in defeat the last twice and is second choice. Tiny Tantrum will be a threat if ready to roll following eight months off and William Ewart also enters calculations.

  1. THE WISE TRAVELLER (IRE)
  2. COPSHILL LAD (IRE)
  3. TINY TANTRUM (IRE)
