Has plenty of class and didn't need to display it all to run out a ready winner of a 3-runner hunter at Newbury 24 days ago. Every chance he'll follow up.

Winning hurdler in France and placed 3 times over fences for Paul Nicholls. Better effort for current yard when fourth in hunter at Stratford 35 days ago and looks the chief threat to Adrien du Pont.

Forecasts

Adrien Du Pont (2/5), Envoye Special (15/8), Tom Barton (28/1), Sheer Poetry (100/1), Dissertation (200/1), Only Time'll Tell (250/1)

Verdict

ADRIEN DU PONT had plenty in hand when winning at Newbury last time and is a cut above this opposition, so he's fancied to follow up quite comfortably under the most experienced rider. Envoye Special is the main danger and Sheer Poetry could take a hand if she retains ability after a mammoth lay-off.

  1. ADRIEN DU PONT (FR)
  2. ENVOYE SPECIAL (FR)
  3. SHEER POETRY (IRE)
