Verdict

Chambard won a maiden hurdle at Exeter in January but came up just short under a penalty at Ludlow on his latest outing and steps up in distance. It remains to be seen if DOMINATEUR copes any better penalised for winning in novice company over today’s distance at Lingfield last month but he beat a previous winner on that occasion so Oliver Sherwood’s charge gets the vote. Iwasthefutureonce has plenty to find on these terms and Westerly Wind has shown little so far.
