Verdict
Quoi De Neuf alternates between hurdles and fences but arrives in good form. Ballybegg has popped up a couple of times here but Kerry Lee’s charge was behind ES PERFECTO over track and trip in January. A useful novice, the latter has had his problems but it’s significant to see him turning out again at this time of year. The Carpenter is making his handicap debut but is defending an unbeaten record over hurdles and is preferred to stablemate Impulsive One. Gardener looks the pick of the remainder ahead of Medyaf and J'Ai Froid.
