Verdict

WORKAHEAD found the Champion Hurdle too hot to handle back in March but very much appeals as the type to make a significant impact as a chaser (winner only start in points) and he's selected to make it first time lucky in this sphere. Supersundae was dominant when scoring over fences at Kilbeggan recently and is feared, as is another last-time-out winner, Wild Bill Hickok.

  1. WORKAHEAD (IRE)
  2. SUPERSUNDAE (FR)
  3. WILD BILL HICKOK (IRE)
