Verdict

JAVERT ALLEN looked a natural over fences on his first run for the best part of a year at Chepstow and, with the promise of better to come from this lightly-raced 5-y-o, he is taken to make it 2-2 in this sphere. General Medrano won as he liked over C&D recently and a 10 lb rise may not be enough to prevent another bold show from Emma Lavelle's representative. Bourbali is also likely to be on the premises.

  1. JAVERT ALLEN (FR)
  2. GENERAL MEDRANO (IRE)
  3. BOURBALI (FR)
