Verdict

An intriguing opener in a race where its hard to draw all the various form lines together. The standard looks to be set by Gary Moore’s Botox Has who bolted up at Fontwell on his GB debut before getting close to one of the Triumph favourites in a Grade 2 here last time. Langer Dan 2-2 over hurdles now has to concede weight to all bar one of his rivals the exception being Friday’s handicap winner over C&D Repetitio; he’ll find this a tougher test if taking his chance. Tremwedge and Rikoboy have something of an unknown quantity about them so GROUP STAGE gets tentative vote. Alan King’s useful Flat type showed that he had taken well to hurdles at Ludlow, this stiffer test will suit far better.
