In depth

Verdict

Successful in a bumper and placed several times over hurdles last season, Moroder didn’t take to fences here in November. Conkwell Legend and Delgany Monarch could figure if finding an extra gear while Beauport shaped nicely on his hurdling debut at Southwell, despite pulling too hard. BALI BODY was second in a maiden point last March behind a useful sort that has subsequently finished second in a couple of bumpers in Ireland and placed twice in decent company over timber. He’s had wind surgery and should be fit enough to do himself justice, though will make a chaser in time.
