Verdict
The form of OFFICER SYDNEY's stable is a concern but he shrugged off similar concerns to score at Roscommon on his hurdling debut and probably only has French import Pariyan to beat in this. Donald McCain's colt has been placed over 1m2f on soft ground so should stay the trip and has more scope than either Sunny Purchase or Bernhard.
