    Verdict

    It's just a year ago that OUR CHANNEL landed a Listed race at Kempton taking him onto a mark of 103. He'd dropped to 92 now but is still well clear on official ratings and should be too good for these. Soiesauvage, a very easy winner in France on heavy ground last April, was bought for hurdling but has shown nothing so far and though the veteran King Olav has been in excellent form his last victory was in a seller and he's facing stronger rivals here. Luv U Whatever has a tremendous strike-rate on the all-weather but he's another who landed a seller last time though he could hardly have won more easily. El Campeon is rated 20lb lower than the selection and only receives 2lb.
