DANS LE VENT wasn’t disgraced when sixth in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham last month. He’d earlier won at Towcester and should have the measure of these. Brunel Woods has placed a couple of times including when third at Musselburgh while Mon Port showed some promise at Newbury on his debut but never figured in soft ground last time. Honest Vic may prove best of the newcomers.
