Verdict
Dead Right had a pipe-opener over hurdles last month but has been hard to train. Big Difference finally won a race over fences at Perth in July and Champagne Court ended a frustrating sequence when scoring at the same track earlier this month. De Barley Basket won as he liked at Uttoxeter and boasts an excellent strike-rate but there is still time for ONE TRUE KING to fulfil his potential over fences and he reappears on the same mark as when successful over hurdles here in March whereas Lermoos Legend looks a bit high in the weights at present.
