4/5

Is a leading juvenile hurdler who completed a hat-trick of wins in the Triumph Hurdle trial at Cheltenham last month where he asserted his dominance after the last. Should be difficult to pass here.

Dino Velvet²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Wayne Hutchinson| T: A King

12/1

Was headed by Dino Velvet when falling at the last at Cheltenham but then went on to score at Sandown despite racing keenly. Looks progressive and stable have hit form.

Form: F142

Dolos^t⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: P F Nicholls

5/1

The powerful and in form trainer won this race last year and holds a leading chance again with this impressive C&D winner. Placed in Grade 1 event at Auteuil last time and clearly has talent. Interesting contender.

Monday Club¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: M D Grant| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 110

50/1

Trainer in form but a poor seller on the Flat here in September the only victory from 18 career starts and looks like he is out of his depth in this field.

Form: 335

Evening Hush²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Paul Moloney| T: Evan Williams| OR: 144

5/2

Former Irish-trained filly who is looking to complete a hat-trick after making all to win a Listed contest at Aintree. Trainer/jockey combination have very strong form stats at the course and do well with last-time-out winners.

Form: 1

Forecasts

Defi Du Seuil (4/5), Evening Hush (5/2), Dolos (5/1), Dino Velvet (12/1), Monday Club (50/1)

In a fascinating contest, DEFI DU SEUIL may have too much toe for his rivals at the end of this race and is taken to get the better of the classy Evening Hush, despite her fillies' allowance. Dolos clearly has plenty of ability and his run at Auteuil last warrants respect. 1. Defi Du Seuil 2. Evening Hush 3. Dolos
