Verdict

WILCOS MO CHARA had the best form of these in bumpers. The Musselburgh winner should come out best if running anywhere near the same level on his hurdling bow. Pied Du Roi is a half-brother to a winning hurdler and is preferred to Bo's Return as both go hurdling for the first time but Moncarno has shown little so far in either start over timber.
