Verdict
Amen hinted at ability in Ireland but is probably best watched on his first start for Gary Moore while Flat winner Arkaim was still well beaten despite finishing fourth at Fakenham on his hurdles bow. Ivan Vasilevich, third at Sedgefield and runner-up at Cartmel, is probably the best of those with experience, therefore, as Ilewin Dundee was beaten when falling at Plumpton. REVE DE NUIT was the best of these on the Flat and Sarah Humphrey has her team firing on all cylinders. He can make a winning debut under NH Rules on this sharp track.
