A likely match between INNESTON and Western Zephyr. The former won a strong bumper for Gabriel Leenders on his only start in France and shaped with lots of encouragement on his recent hurdling debut at Newbury, so he's preferred to Charlie Longsdon's 6-y-o, who was a shade disappointing under a penalty last time.
