Verdict

It might be worth taking a chance on bumper winner WALK OF THE ROSES taking a step forward now handicapping for the first time for a new stable. Del Girl would likely be a big threat if back to the form she showed when going close at Punchestown in June. Destivelle also makes the shortlist having been placed in similar company on 5 of her last 7 hurdle starts.

  1. WALK OF THE ROSES (IRE)
  2. DEL GIRL (IRE)
  3. DESTIVELLE (IRE)
