Verdict
VICTOR LEUDORUM was due to reappear in a much stronger race last week, and while this engagement is no gimme, Charlie Mann will be hoping that his Listed class hurdler can follow up a win at Ascot. Twirling Magnet fell at the last at Worcester having looked in with a chance of collecting. Jonjo O'Neill's charge has to be respected if that spill hasn't dented his confidence. Peachey Moment is on a losing run although his better efforts have obtained during the summertime. French Ties is the only course and distance winner in the field and small field sizes have historically seemed to bring out the best in him. Saphir Des Bois represents a yard that had a shock 1-2 in a bumper at Worcester earlier in the month, so any market confidence behind the ex-Peter Bowen inmate is duly noted.
