Verdict

GOONHILLY was in the process of building on his hurdling debut when departing late at Ludlow last month and, with the Skelton yard going much better now, he's taken to get off the mark at the third attempt in this sphere. Le Jeune Bresil is an imposing sort who's open to further improvement, with Kelso-scorer Old Gregorian also feared.

  1. GOONHILLY (IRE)
  2. LE JEUNE BRESIL
  3. OLD GREGORIAN
