Verdict

FRENCH SYMPHONY showed plenty in bumpers last season and, with the longer trip bound to suit now going hurdling, he makes plenty of appeal, especially with his yard very much amongst the winners. Lagertha is another who shaped with encouragement in bumpers and shouldn't be taken lightly, with successful-pointer Tommy The Tank completing the shortlist.

  1. FRENCH SYMPHONY (IRE)
  2. LAGERTHA (FR)
  3. TOMMY THE TANK (IRE)
