40/1

Fourth sole start in points. Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 20/1, fourth of 18 in novice hurdle at Tipperary (20f, good) on hurdles bow back in July 2019. Feasible to think this will be needed.

Forecasts

Capodanno (10/11), Dunboyne (9/4), Wasdale Park (11/2), Drop Him In (11/1), Quirt Evans (11/1), Argentoratum (20/1), Mahlers Dollar (25/1), Caesar Rock (25/1), Clarabello (40/1), Zamond (50/1), Cregane Ned (66/1), Go All The Way (80/1), Grange Island (100/1), Sarsfield Street (125/1), Henry Star (150/1), Fredastare (200/1), Inchidaly Copper (400/1)

Placed on his sole start in France, CAPODANNO shaped well on his yard debut/first start for 13 months when third in a 19f maiden here last month. A likely improver for his powerful stable, he earns the vote to get off the mark. Dunboyne rates the chief threat for Gordon Elliott, ahead of Wasdale Park.
