Verdict

SHALLWEHAVEONEMORE, an impressive winner of a Kempton bumper on his debut in March, has shown plenty of ability on both his starts over hurdles despite pulling hard, and this looks an excellent opportunity back under less testing conditions for him to get off the mark for the season. Balkeo is an interesting recruit for Nicky Henderson who requires close market attention.
