Verdict

A serious case of quantity over quality here, HYPOTENUS strongly fancied to build on the promise of his hurdling debut at the second attempt. The hood is left off and John McConnell's charge can get the better of Como Park, who shaped encouragingly sent hurdling on his first outing for Henry de Bromhead back in March and should have more to offer in this sphere. Mercury Mission and Yorkshire Escape are another couple to consider.

  1. HYPOTENUS
  2. COMO PARK (IRE)
  3. MERCURY MISSION
