In depth
Verdict
A moderate contest can go to Henrianjames who is taken to defy a 7lb penalty for a smooth success over this course and distance earlier in the month. Having only his second outing over fences, Mary Reveley's charge showed significant improvement to score more easily than the winning margin would suggest and looks more than capable of progressing further having shown an appreciation for a fast surface. Mumaris was a fair winning hurdler in Ireland but has had plenty of chances over the larger onstacles and failed to make an impact on his British chasing bow in ordinary company at Warwick earlier in the month. Ulusaba is a dual selling winner over hurdles but will need to show more on his chasing bow to trouble the selection.
