      Verdict

      LE CHIFFRE D’OR easily landed the odds here just over two weeks ago and will be a short price to complete a double over hurdles against modest opposition. Rachel Louise placed twice in bumpers over the summer but may need today’s experience and none of the others make much appeal, though If I Say and Fashion's Model have won between the flags.
