Verdict

Plenty in with a shout, but Tom George's COME ON TEDDY arrives on the back of a cracking third in Cheltenham's Pertemps Final so this upwardly-mobile hurdler is fancied to emerge on top. Hometown Boy is another low-mileage sort with better days ahead of him now stepping up to 3m and is feared most, although handicap debutant Ballybegg and Champagne Platinum also have much to recommend them.

  1. COME ON TEDDY (IRE)
  2. HOMETOWN BOY (IRE)
  3. BALLYBEGG (IRE)
