Verdict
Toulouse Express should ensure this turns into a trial of attrition and that will suit out-and-out stayer Matmata De Tendron. First-time blinkers could inspire Bardolet to put his best foot forward while Definite Appeal stepped up on previous efforts under Rules when scoring under amateur Jakub Kocman at Musselburgh. Dollar Mick and Treehouse both have the ability the take a hand in the finish if in the mood but a safer proposition may be DOBERDAN. The latter was well ridden to score decisively over 2m3f here last time and appeared to stay this longer trip when trained in Ireland.
