Verdict

GREAT TEMPO arrives here having finished runner-up on testing ground at Auteuil in June. The third and fourth have subsequently won at Listed level so this shouldn't prove a problem for David Pipe's charge who has frightened away most of the opposition. Irish raider Ashjan is fitted with blinkers after a very poor debut over hurdles at Thurles while Josephine K has yet to finish in front of another rival in her four career starts.
