Verdict
This is hardly an ideal getting-out stakes and the market should indicate the way to go. Uhtred is bred for middle-distances over jumps but could still prove best of Joseph O'Brien's pair while Fakiera is the first foal of a French bumper winner and may be best of the Gordon Elliott trio. Fantasio D'alene was fancied on his debut between the flags though fell early while the €70,000 Soldat De Voyage is related to some useful winners and Richie Deegan is a solid booking. WHERETHEWINDSBLOW is the first foal of a bumper winner and looks as good as any in a very tricky contest. His stable companion, the filly Commander Lady, is another well-connected type who could get into the action.
