Verdict

VICTORIANO had fallen far enough down the weights to get his head back in front over track and trip last month with Manjaam behind. He looks worth sticking with in this while Chipiron and Lord Torranaga have both won over 1m6f recently though the latter has won over hurdles in the past. Romulan Prince has scored over a mile on the all-weather but is a full-brother to a winner over hurdles and debuts for Olly Murphy’s predominantly jumps yard.
