Desert Friend was second over track and trip back last September but didn’t reproduce that form in two subsequent starts over timber. Evergreen And Red has found only one too good in his last three starts over hurdles and will be fancied to go one better while Eastern Tornado is surely better than he’s shown so far. Placed in Listed company on the Flat last year, GENTLEMAN JOE was highly tried in two runs over hurdles last season. His sights are lowered here and Henry De Bromhead’s four-year-old should take all the beating if fully wound-up.
