Verdict

ZERO TEN comes here on a hat trick of wins following bumper and maiden hurdle wins at Galway last season. The Shantou gelding landed the hurdle win by 15L overcoming 14 rivals in the process and the six-year-old can bag this contest despite the attentions of The Caddy Rose and Big Tree from the Thomas Mullins yard.
