Verdict
Vengeur De Guye has been around for a while but is eased in grade, though has never won on going this heavy. However, he appears to hold Budarri and Halcyon Days on recent form. Llantara was a consistent sort over hurdles last term though hasn’t run over fences in more than two years while Treshnish has lost the plot since winning twice here in the spring. ETTILA DE SIVOLA was more like his old self at Kelso last month. He’s had a wind operation since and Brian Hughes keeps the partnership intact.
