Verdict

Retrieve’s rating of a 105 is based on his earlier form for Godolphin. A Listed winner back in 2012, he’s won twice over hurdles subsequently but hasn't raced since 2015 and has his first start for Jamie Osborne in this. Pearl Nation is another with a high handicap rating but he hasn’t raced since April and VIVAT REX makes more appeal. Conor Dore’s charge has been contesting decent handicaps since winning a claiming race over course and distance at the start of the year when beating Regarde Moi and should go close again. The remaining pair look up against it on these terms.
