A competitive field goes to post for the highlight on the card with many that can be given chances on their best form, including Unleash, East Tycoon and Master Papa, and we take Unleash to continue on the upgrade. The colt from the Phillip Hobbs yard has been in good form on the flat of late and when last seen over hurdles he won well defeating Sonevafushi. He still looks to be on a fair mark and with conditions in his favour he will be hard to beat. East Tycoon rates the main danger. He won well last time out over hurdles when defeating Golden Flight. He has since had a pipe opener on the flat to put him spot on for this and he has definite place claims. However, his best form has come with more cut in the ground so for that reason he is overlooked here. Master Papa was a fair fourth behind Laouen last time but he gave the impression that he would be seen to better effect over a longer trip, and again he may find one too good. Don Fernando would have a chance on his best form, but he was a major disappointment behind Ringmarole last time and is best watched here, so the confident vote goes to Unleash.
