Verdict

Those with hurdles experience don't set an exacting standard and it could well pay to side with MIRABAD without the benefit of market clues. A useful sort on the Flat in France, he posted his best effort yet when runner-up in listed company back in November and promises to be suited by this sort of test now hurdling for his new stable. Sao Carlos and Jaminoz head up the dangers, with Gallonray also worth monitoring in the betting for clues now hurdling.

  1. MIRABAD (FR)
  2. SAO CARLOS
  3. JAMINOZ (IRE)
