Verdict
PRESENTING ARMS was well backed on his reappearance at Kempton 10 days ago and didn't disappoint. He's now won three of his last four and, having escaped a penalty, can continue on an upward curve by landing this. Leviathan could be the one for forecast-backers as he has conditions in his favour and didn't run badly at Ascot last month when returning from a break. All of Gabrial The Great's wins over hurdles have come on good ground and he's been off for more than 12 months while Ryeolliean has only won a maiden hurdle so far and has shown little recently. Filatore may be a bit out of his depth.
