Verdict
The four-year-old Flamborough scored at Catterick in October and showed his liking for testing conditions when a close second to Western Comandor on his hurdling debut at Down Royal with the more experienced Canal End a length back in third. Gold Bullion won a bumper for Paul Nicholls in January 2021 but hasn't been seen since beaten in a similar race at Chepstow two months later. Mint Boy, a winner between the flags, makes his hurdling debut after a couple of very good runs in bumpers but this can go to ZAIDI. Gordon Elliott's winning point-to-pointer landed a Thurles bumper by 17 lengths last month and looks one to follow.
