Verdict

THUNDER ROCK has made a fine start over fences, building on his Uttoxeter success with a career-best display at Ascot in November. Well worth his place at this higher level he can make it 3-3 in this sphere, with Monmiral feared most on the back of his fine chase debut second behind Jonbon. The likeable Beauport completes the shortlist.

  1. THUNDER ROCK (IRE)
  2. MONMIRAL (FR)
  3. BEAUPORT (IRE)
