A cracking renewal of this often-significant Grade 1. MESSIRE DES OBEAUX couldn’t have made a much better start over fences and, having comfortably lowered the colours of a smart one in the Grade 2 Dipper at Wincanton last month, he’s taken extend his unbeaten record to 3 in this sphere. Hitman, Dame de Compagnie and Shan Blue are all fascinating contenders, though.
