Verdict

Iberique Du Seuill has been a short-priced beaten favourite in both starts but has probably come up against decent winners. He had Swinging London back in third at Punchestown and, though the latter should improve, he looks to have too much ground to make up. CHAMPION GREEN is rated 90 on the Flat after landing the odds in a Punchestown maiden in September. He Is the type his yard does so well with and can make a successful debut over timber though Gavin Cromwell has acquired recent Lingfield winner Halcyon Spirit from the UK though another recruit from across the Irish Sea, Just Jacob, could be more suited by the going. Vera Verto completes a trio of first-timers for the stable and she created a huge shock when landing a Gowran handicap in April at 125/1 while Dutch Schaefer completed a double in low-grade handicaps on the Flat in October.
