Verdict

This looks tricky as Toviere ran well for second behind Marquis Of Carabas at Warwick. Kalondra wasn't beaten far over this trip in a bunch finish at Fakenham when last seen. Irish import ROCKLANDER has some decent form to his name and can make a winning start for Tom George as Royal Plaza probably need to improve on his fourth at Plumpton. Phobiaphiliac was just worn down by Going For Broke over 2m at Uttoxeter on his hurdling debut. The third in that race has franked the form since so Nicky Henderson's novice is a threat if he stays.
