Verdict

Unless Paul Nicholls' French recruit Jump City or Venetia Williams' Rajeeva, another import from France, are special this should be no problem for SMAD PLACE. Alan King's juvenile made a spectacular start to his career in this country with a facile victory over Nicholls' hot-pot Dolatulo at Newbury and showed the value of that success with a cracking effort in the Grade 1 Future Champions Finale Hurdle at Chepstow last month. None of the remainder have remotely similar level of form and this should prove a nice preliminary for Cheltenham where he's in the Triumph Hurdle and the Neptune Investment Novice Hurdle.
