Verdict

This 3m3f trip could be a real test of attrition in the conditions and with one or two of these having jumping problems that trait could well play a part also. Carrying 11-12 in these conditions is going to be tough and that’s the test set for Ramses De Teillee after his tune up over hurdles here last month. He’s much respected but POP ROCKSTAR stepping up in trip is an intriguing contender with his smooth travelling style and slick jumping looking ideal for this test. West Approach is sure to feature at some point but his weak finishing tendencies preclude him from being considered for a win. Achille and Big River if he can keep the mistakes to a minimum being of more interest in this slog.
