Verdict
OMAR MARETTI won a couple of minor races between the flags and was well supported for his hurdling debut here last month and had few problems seeing off more experienced rivals. He can go in again as though Real Stone looked a nice prospect when gaining a surprise debut success over timber at Aintree he's been a bit disappointing subsequently. El Jefe will be receiving plenty of weight from the previous winners but was beaten a long way into third here last month while Very Patient could only finish mid-division over the track and trip in December.
