ICEO looked a smart prospect when scoring by a wide margin on first start for Paul Nicholls at Kempton last month, and with the performance backed up by the clock, he's fully expected to take this step up in grade in his stride. Pied Piper created a good impression at Punchestown and rates a big threat, while Interne de Sivola is not taken lightly on the back of a convincing display over C&D.
