Verdict

One Sniff is taken to get the better of Nine De Sivola and The Reverend. The selection finished a distance behind Denman two runs ago and he then built on that with a solid effort last time to beat Supreme's Legacy at Kelso. He is clearly going the right way and with ground conditions to suit and the yard in red hot form he should take plenty of beating. Nine De Sivola was rated 132 over hurdles and he has shown plenty of promise over the bigger obstacles so far. He chased home Alright Now M'Lad at Wetherby last time and he should be capable of getting his head in front before long. The Reverend made a pleasing return over hurdles last time after being off the track for over a year. He is making his chasing debut today but his yard are in red hot form so he is worth consideration. Cul La Balla is an interesting newcomer from a top yard so is another worth a look in the market, but for the winner we are happy to return to One Sniff.
