Some frustrating types including Sud Bleu, Whats The Count and Mister Putt and we will take Sud Bleu to land his first race over the larger obstacles. Some may have been rather rude about his trustworthiness in the past but Sud Bleu unquestionably paid for a decent start to his hurdling career and was always fighting a losing battle since. Today's trip looks ideal and with his ability to handle the ground not in question, we will hope that his jumping holds up. Whats The Count invariably places in these events but has been well held by animals who don't appear to possess the same class as our selection.Mister Putt showed his well-being with a recent second on the flat at Folkestone over 1m7f. He has little in the way of turn of foot and will not get the sticky conditions that he seems to save his best performances for. Master T is another frustrating type who will customarily held up. The market will tell us if he has shown much at home. Sud Bleu is selected in the hope that he can show an aptitude for fencing.
