King Revo is impossible to oppose here with Kentucky Blue and Andre Chenier rating the main dangers. The selection was the best of these over hurdles and although he has been slightly dissapointing over fences to date he should improve on this faster ground and with this step up in trip and he is hard to oppose. Kentucky Blue rates the main danger on his latest fifth behind Faasel thiis looks easier but his overall profile leaves him with a little to find with the selection. Andre Chenier is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he would be seen to better effect if this were a handicap and he is opposed . Of the remainder Trafalga Man is from a yard in form and could go well at a price but for the winner we return to King Revo who is taken to win this before going on to better things.
