Verdict
VISION DES FLOS has been very highly tried over fences since beating the now 166-rated Royale Pagaille in a match at Chepstow in January of last year and connections will be scratching their heads again if he can’t take advantage of a further drop in the ratings in this lower grade. Paseo has only run once over fences so far and was well beaten but Zoffee won at Exeter last year, though hasn’t run since April.
