Verdict

ELLEON soon bounced back to form when third at Sedgefield last time, despite having made his effort earlier than ideal, and he can gain a deserved first success over fences with blinkers applied. Ballylinch could still have more to offer after only 4 chase starts and is feared most, ahead of Kadex.
