Verdict

Effectively a three-horse race, with IMPERIAL MERLIN fancied to defy the double penalty and take his record to 3-3 over hurdles. The Skeltons' representative Hitching Jacking should go on improving after his victory at Uttoxeter, whilst De Legislator is also expected to progress from his successful Rules debut.

  1. IMPERIAL MERLIN (IRE)
  2. HITCHING JACKING (FR)
  3. DE LEGISLATOR (IRE)
