Verdict
REVE DE VOL raced in Group company last season after an opening victory at Fairyhouse and was never disgraced. He returned to action in a Listed contest at the Curragh earlier this month and came with a late run to catch the smart Patrick Sarsfield on the line. He should win more races this campaign and holds Geometrical on that run. Hector De Maris doesn't look a stable star having been well beaten in the Ulster Derby while Haparanda and Lafayette, 1-2 in a Leopardstown handicap in October, may find a couple of these have too much class for them. Point Nepean was a short-head winner of a Navan maiden last month and will need major improvement to get involved.
