Useful winner at 12f on flat. Solid start over hurdles when second of 19 in maiden at Navan (15.8f, good, 15/2) debut 13 days ago. Good chance he can go one better now.

Forecasts

Vultan (8/11), Luke Short (13/8), Marvel De Cerisy (3/1), Whatcoloristhewind (14/1), Kingslayer (16/1), Hardy Bloke (16/1), Lizzies Song (20/1), Free Birds Fly (40/1), The Big Chap (50/1), Gregory's Gift (66/1), Herculaneum (100/1), Eternal Prince (100/1), The Niffler (125/1), Sandy Hill Toner (150/1)

Verdict

VULTAN was useful on the Flat and looks capable of reaching a similar level over hurdles based on his encouraging first attempt at Navan. He should take a bit of stopping, with Luke Short, who was 6 lengths behind him in third at Navan, the one likely to give him most to do unless the betting speaks in the favour of Henry de Bromhead point recruit Marvel de Cerisy.

  1. VULTAN (IRE)
  2. LUKE SHORT
  3. MARVEL DE CERISY (FR)
