      Verdict

      Placed in all three starts over hurdles in Ireland, the former Ed Dunlop-trained Khanmurjan would have strong claims if fully wound-up for his first run since July. Willy Nilly defied market expectations when third at Ludlow but this looks a good opportunity for CITY DERBY. The bumper winner showed signs of inexperience here three weeks ago but still ran well and would have finished closer but for veering off a straight course up the home straight.
