Oneonechop is thoroughly exposed and now visored. Mister Allegro won on the all-weather as a two-year-old but recent form leaves a lot to be desired. GENUFLEX was a decent performer on the Flat when trained by Richard Hannon. Gelded over the summer, he is a half-brother to a winning hurdler and might be some value against likely favourite Scots Gold, who didn’t really improve on his debut second at Stratford when filling the same position at Market Rasen. French imports Allset and Saint Riquier may do better when the ground eases.
