Verdict

Enitsag gets the confident vote to win this hunter chase with Magicien and Jacquemart Colombe rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair fifth behind Dun An Doris last time out. That form looks rock solid in the context of this race and with the drop in trip also in his favour he will be hard to beat. Magicien rates the main danger as he won a point in good style last time out when beating Jamero but all his best form is over a longer trip and he looks opposable on that basis. Jacquemart Colombe is another that will not be far away on his best form but he was let down by his jumping last time. Of the remainder Sharlom is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but he lacks experience over regulation fences and with this in mind for the winner we return to Enitsag.
