Verdict

Old Jeroboam made a winning start at Wetherby last month but a Dan Skelton-trained horse was not beaten far in third. That should give the latter a good line on the form and he introduces OLLY THE BRAVE, the first foal of a winning hurdler/chaser who may well prove good enough in this. Lord Roccoco improves with every start and can figure with any further progress while €20,000 purchase Symphony Hall is preferred to Celtic Tara of the remaining newcomers.
