Maousse Honor has bags of ability but doesn't always use it. However he won a similar contest under a fine ride from Tony McCoy last time out at Stratford when defeating Promising and if he can reproduce that effort he should win. Trimstone and Umbopa showed a modicum of ability on the flat but both were pulled up on there hurdle debuts in better races, this is easier but they will have to improve significantly to beat Maousse Honor. The remainder look very moderate.
