    Verdict

    Fix At All did win over hurdles and fences in France but hasn’t really threatened in three runs so far in the country. Operation Overlord is best watched after pulling up at Bangor following a lay-off while Travail D'Orfevre was a bit disappointing here last time following a third at Kelso. ESCAPEANDEVADE only weakened on the run-in at Wetherby when making his chasing bow and will strip fitter here.
