SIROCO JO proved to be a disappointment on his yard/British debut when pulled up at Kempton over Christmas. However, he had previously showed plenty of ability when second on his sole start in France and is probably worth another chance for his powerful stable. Hereford scorer Herbiers and See The Eagle Fly rate the chief threats, whilst Saint Palais isn't discounted either.
