      Verdict

      There’s probably not a lot to choose between these on their best form but Leapaway seems to be suffering from a lack of confidence and Al Roc isn’t really firing at present. VISION DES FLOS is back on the mark off which he was successful 12 months ago and a recent second over hurdles at Newton Abbot was the ideal preparation. Golden Taipan was the first beaten at Bangor last time but Fat Sam is back on song and looks a danger.
