Verdict

ERICHT could round off a successful afternoon for the Nicky Henderson yard as he made his rivals look very one-paced when coasting to victory at Huntingdon last time. He can reverse Ascot running with Twentyfourcarat, who rather stole the race that day under a positive ride from Timmy Murphy - it's unlikely the partnership will be given as much rope here. Persian Snow looked good when beating subsequent C&D winner Balding Banker at Ascot in October and is open to further improvement, but Bygones In Brid and Peckhamecho have more to do than when scoring on debut and Leopardstown winner Star Neuville is more exposed than most.
