Verdict

A wide open finale. Willie Mullins saddles five and his lightly-raced ex-French recruit ROC DINO appeals as a major improver now stepping into handicap company on his first go over this trip so edges the vote from stablemate Kel Histoire, who also looks primed to take a big step forward on his handicap debut. Karl des Tourelles reverts to this sphere after a spell chasing on a good mark and could also have a big say, while Andashan and East India Express look the pick of the home contingent.
