In depth

Verdict

Those to have raced over hurdles previously look moderate and it would be no surprise if one of the newcomers proved good enough. TEAMtalk preference is for Last Theatre who has shown a useful level of form on the level in Ireland and should take the beating if transfering the same level of ability over timber. Kalca Mome is difficult to assess on his French form but is a dual winner and has definite claims so should be noted in the exchanges. Xellance ran as though something was amiss on his most recent on the Flat and now has to prove his wellbeing.
