Verdict

French recruit BORN IN PURPLE made an encouraging start to his hurdle career when second at Tramore 6 weeks ago and is taken to prove too strong for Hypotenus, who has first outing for new trainer Gavin Cromwell here. Western Fold and Dollar Nolimit achieved enough in bumpers to think they can make an impact over hurdles and can fight it out for third spot.

  1. BORN IN PURPLE (FR)
  2. HYPOTENUS
  3. WESTERN FOLD (IRE)
