Verdict

A winner over hurdles in France, CRIN AU VENT has had just the one start for Paul Nicholls and better is expected this season. Pulled-up and dismounted on his latest start, Newbury winner Gassin Golf has been off the track for over year now, while both Remiluc and Disputed were well beaten on their recent return to action. Space Oddity was narrowly beaten at Taunton in April and is upped in class for this but The Gipper was progressive last season winning three times and could figure on his reappearance.
