Verdict
Irish import Thecraicisninety is only 1-19 over fences and has shown nothing since arriving in this country. CROOKS PEAK is well treated over fences on his hurdles form. He’s had just the four runs over the larger obstacles so might have a bit of scope. Fort De L'ocean is the only course winner in the line-up and preferred to the returning Valence D'aumont and Darling Du Large, though the latter is back on a winning mark.
