Verdict

MANUCCI showed plenty of promise when runner-up to a useful looking rival on hurdles debut here last month and he can go one better than when finishing runner-up that day. The selection can get the better of the experienced I Like Him who was placed on his UK debut last time out. Black Abbey showed ability when winning on the Flat in France and he can finish third on his first start for his current trainer.
