Verdict

Several progressive sorts in a good-quality renewal. ALTOBELLI impressed with the way he travelled into contention when second on his C&D reappearance and is taken to build on that promise and fend off progressive J P McManus/Nicky Henderson pair Iberico Lord and Impose Toi.

  1. ALTOBELLI (IRE)
  2. IBERICO LORD (FR)
  3. IMPOSE TOI (FR)
