Verdict

DADDY LONG LEGS doubled his tally in ready fashion at Ludlow recently but it's his hurdling debut success that still sticks in the mind and he may well be more talented than a mark of 135 would suggest. He gets the nod over stablemate Bialystok, with Toto Too another one to consider after making a winning start for his current yard.

  1. DADDY LONG LEGS (FR)
  2. BIALYSTOK (IRE)
  3. TOTO TOO (IRE)
