1/1
Dual bumper winner. Satisfactory enough start over hurdles when 6 lengths third over C&D in September, but has proven to a be a disappointment both starts since. Bit to prove.

Fairly useful on the Flat for Andrew Balding, stays 14.5f, creditable third last time. Should be up to making his presence felt in a race of this nature over hurdles.

Fairly useful on Flat but below form all 3 starts in 2020. Makes jumps debut and perhaps best watched.

10/1
Fair winner on the Flat (stays 1½m) and showed an aptitude for hurdling in a juvenile event at Stratford in March, shaping third best for much of the way. Capable of better.

5/2
Fairly useful on Flat, (stays 1¾m). Bought for 110,000 gns but looks very expensive judged on what he's shown so far over hurdles. Subsequent wind op needs to have had a positive effect.

Seemed unsuited by track but still showed ability when sixth of 14 in a bumper at Stratford on debut. Below expectations switched to hurdling last time, though did lose both front shoes.

Modest maiden on Flat, stays 17f, bit below form of late. Would be an unlikely winner on hurdle debut.

Forecasts

Chuvelo (1/1), Castel Gandolfo (9/4), Punctuation (5/2), Edinburgh Castle (9/2), Astroman (10/1), Sammeo (22/1), Past Master (25/1), Sinndarella (33/1), Kalinda (66/1), Rosierita (250/1)

Verdict

CASTEL GANDOLFO seems consistent rather than progressive but he's still shown enough to suggest he can win a race of this nature. Chuvelo has a bit to prove at present, so fairly useful Flat performer Edinburgh Castle may pose the biggest threat.

  1. CASTEL GANDOLFO (IRE)
  2. EDINBURGH CASTLE (IRE)
  3. CHUVELO (IRE)
