Very hard to oppose MITCHOUKA in the opener for Gordon Elliott and Davy Russell. He's got three hurdles wins under his belt already and excelled over this C&D last month. This appears a good chance for him to snare a graded prize. Mastermind did well to win over C&D last time, though has plenty to find with the selection on prior meetings. The consistent Randalls Ur Poet should continue to go well and may land minor money, but the filly Alohamora is potentially more intriguing after a facile Catterick success on her hurdles bow recently.
