8/11

Useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Excellent third of 7 in minor event hurdle (8/1) at Cork (16.3f, soft) 32 days ago, running on. Makes chase debut up in trip and he's a danger to all if getting near that level.

Forecasts

Intellotto (8/11), Jigoro (13/8), Encanto Bruno (5/2), Ambitious Fellow (7/1), Minella Sergeant (66/1), Star In The Park (66/1)

JIGORO is just about the best of these over hurdles and tackling a more suitable trip than he did on chase bow, is expected to elevate his form. Intellotto and Encanto Bruno look the chief threats.
