Verdict
BREIZH ALKO won in a higher grade when last seen over hurdles in 2019. He will have needed an outing over fences at Lingfield last month and could be the answer to a low-grade contest, despite his big weight. Gyllen was a very smart performer on the Flat in France in his younger days but has had his problems. True Thoughts is slipping slowly down the weights but Advantura is less exposed and looks a bigger danger.
