Verdict

STARCHITECT caught the eye when staying on over this C&D here last month and that fifth placed effort is better than it appears given he was hampered at a crucial stage. David Pipe's charge ran well over further next time out and can take this competitive Grade 3 contest by defeating Thomas Crapper who finished just in front of him at Cheltenham while course regular and top weight Village Vic is taken to finish third. Of the remainder 2016's winner Voix D'Eau is worth noting here though this looks a stronger race than last years renewal.
  1. Starchitect
  2. Thomas Crapper
  3. Village Vic
