Verdict

An open-looking handicap and with that in mind a chance is taken on the returning VALLERES. Absent since running below form over hurdles last spring, some of his chase form for Alan King reads well and, with a good record fresh to call upon, it would come as no surprise to see him go well on debut for Venetia Williams. Hometown Hero and Eaton Collina may emerge next best, whilst Henschke can't be ruled out either.
