Verdict

Dual hurdles winner TWO PAST EIGHT has run well on his last 2 starts in this code, so he's given the vote in a trappy event. Le Rouge Chinois is holding his form well and is sure to be in the thick of the action once again if seeing out the still longer trip, while Smart Champion has dropped to a mark where he's hard to ignore.

  1. TWO PAST EIGHT
  2. LE ROUGE CHINOIS (DEN)
  3. SMART CHAMPION
