Verdict

JEAN GENIE and Gaulois possess much the best form on show and Tim Vaughan's fair hurdler/chaser is taken to gain a deserved first success after numerous near misses. Gaulois has failed to fire on his last two starts but would still pose a major threat if first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect on Paul Nicholls' 6-y-o.
