Verdict

Atlantic Storm has won six of his 44 starts over fences and was second last time at Hereford but Ornua seems to have lost the plot seems leaving Henry De Bromhead’s yard last year. Treshnish has to go on the shortlist after getting back to winning ways at Hexham but last month’s Kelso third HERE WE HAVE IT will be receiving 7lb, including riders’ allowances, and makes more appeal. Icaque De L'Isle won in France in June and the four-year-old is almost certainly better than he showed at Ffos Las.
