Verdict

All things being equal, ESPOIR D'ALLEN should be able to make it 5/5 here. The JP McManus owned juvenile has impressed on all four starts so far and looks a very nice prospect for an owner who often does well in these sorts of contests. He accounted for main market rival Mitchouka by almost five lengths last time out, and should be able to confirm form here. Instead, his stablemate Farclas may provide the main danger to the selection on debut over hurdles, having shown some good form on the Flat in France.
