Verdict

This looks a good opportunity for INVINCIBLE NAO to gain his first win in Britain, Gary Moore's gelding having showed the benefit of experience when a good third at Lingfield last month. Hardy Boy has been running consistently well in defeat this season and should give another good account, with Langley Hundred also respected if able to return to something like his chase debut form.
