        Verdict

        Jockey bookings suggest Wincanton third Chabichou Dupoitou is the pick of Philip Hobbs’ two runners. Ma Belle Noire is a likely improver and makes more appeal than stablemate Last Of A Legend but EMORELLE has shaped nicely in a couple of runs under Eleanor Williams at Ffos Las and she could be a bit of value in this with ground concerns surrounding the penalised Grivetana, who failed to land the odds on her UK debut at Wincanton.
