Verdict
Cherokee Bill has never won in 14 starts but For Eden wasn't beaten far in any of his first four starts over fences and was tackling better class when well beaten at Tramore. GLAMORGAN DUKE showed potential over hurdles and made a fair chasing debut at Galway last month so gets the nod to open his account. Sil Ver Klass, a very consistent performer over hurdles, made a decent start over the bigger obstacles at Galway and looks likely his mark over fences so should get into contention. Winning bumper Diamond Turf makes his chasing debut and looks the type to make progress this campaign.
