Verdict

WONDERFUL EAGLE has left the impression there's a bigger effort in him over hurdles if his jumping improves and he arrives on the back of a successful effort on the Flat, so he's worth a chance to add another C&D win to his record. Last-time-out winners Finisk River and Melton Mossy could emerge as the main dangers.

  1. WONDERFUL EAGLE (GER)
  2. FINISK RIVER
  3. MELTON MOSSY (IRE)
