Verdict
Our Victoria has yet to race over this trip over hurdles but, as a winning point-to-pointer, it should hold no fears. Datokepe's only victory came over the minimum trip but he wasn't stopping at the end of his latest start over 2m6f at Fairyhouse and can make further progress. FRIENDLY SOCIETY has a bit to find with these but there was plenty to like about his recent victory over For Dylan at Limerick and he can make enough progress to complete a quick double. Gran Torino is the classiest performer here but a spell over fences doesn't appear to have done him any good as he ran very poorly over this trip at Fairyhouse last time.
