Verdict

MITCHOUKA can follow up his recent victory at Down Royal by following up in this opening juvenile hurdle. The selection impressed with the ease of his victory on that occasion and can take this before going on to better things. North Carolina represents a leading stable today and having ran well on his sole start at two he can claim second on his first outing in well over a year while previous hurdles winner Minnie Dahill can finish third.
  1. Mitchouka
  2. North Carolina
  3. Minnie Dahill
