Verdict

Plenty with claims here including ELOI DU PUY, who has really upped his game this season and was still in the firing line when brought down at Sandown last month. He gets the nod. Immortal Fame and Nab Wood rate the principal dangers.

  1. ELOI DU PUY (FR)
  2. IMMORTAL FAME (IRE)
  3. NAB WOOD (IRE)
