Verdict

LE MUSEE ran a cracker on his UK and hurdling debut at Wincanton. He was beaten under a length by a winner rated 125 and would only need to run up that form here to go one better. Ar Mest is improving with experience and the Huntingdon third looks the one for forecast-backers ahead of Plumpton fourth Lost History, who holds Hier Encore on the form book. Flat winner Thames Knight just hasn’t taken to hurdles.
