Verdict
AQUA DUDE scored over track and trip in November and was aimed high when sent for a Grade 2 at Ascot last time. He could only manage third on that occasion but should have enough to take care of this bunch. Moidore had little chance behind the higher rated Big Chief Benny at Doncaster last time and may get involved but bumper winner Rose Revived was pulled-up on her hurdling debut. Amber Gambler and Breezemount have both won point-to-points though the latter was well beaten on her hurdling bow.
