Verdict

WOODBROOK BOY improved over fences this summer and shaped as if back in form last time so, while he's almost certainly better in that discipline, he's still worth chancing from a significantly lower hurdling mark, particularly as serious opposition looks thin on the ground. Exit To The West has won a point since last seen under Rules, so he's another one to consider for a shrewd yard.

  1. WOODBROOK BOY (IRE)
  2. EXIT TO THE WEST (IRE)
  3. FEATHERED GOLD (IRE)
