A point-to-point winner in Ireland, CHIANTI CLASSICO was purchased for £105,000 and went close in a bumper at Ascot on his debut under Rules. He looks capable of landing this with normal progress and can confirm running with Nollyador. Bolintlea was set a stiff task in Listed company at Cheltenham last month and will find this easier while the likes of Sporty Jim, High Yield and Forget The Way are all newcomers related to bumper winners.
