Verdict
Few make much appeal with the progressive GUGUSS COLLONGES standing out. The latter won over a longer trip here before missing out by only a short-head back over these fences and can defy a further rise in the weights. Zamani looks the main threat back over the larger obstacles after a better effort over hurdles last time while Mustang Alpha may improve for today’s charge of headgear. The remainder have struggled over timber recently and are difficult to recommend.
