Young Albert, Tell Henry and Beau Largesse are three against the field in this competitive affair. The selection finished in mid-division behind Pangbourne at Aintree last time out. That form looks rock solid and as he is sure to have been well schooled for this his hurdling debut he will be hard to beat if he puts in a fluent round of jumping. Tell Henry rates the main danger on his latest second behind First Cry but the drop in trip has to be of concern. Beau Largesse is another worthy of respect on his debut fourth behind Jass in his bumper he is sure to have been well schooled and with his yard in top form he should be closely watched in the market. Of the others Chief Dan George is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he is hard to win with and with this in mind for the winner we return to Young Albert.
