Verdict

TEA CLIPPER hasn't done much wrong in good quality handicap chases at top tracks since returning to action in October, and it will be disappointing should he fail to deliver on this hunter debut. For all that he has a fair bit to prove at present, Espoir de Guye is nevertheless the clear second choice ahead of Myth Buster.

  1. TEA CLIPPER (IRE)
  2. ESPOIR DE GUYE (FR)
  3. MYTH BUSTER (IRE)
