Just the three to concentrate on in this. Lucky Bay, who gained his only success here, should do well in this sphere and will be difficult to beat here, but he faces a couple of more than useful rivals in Iverain and Sudden Shock. The former has experience over fences in France and is sure to give a good account, but Sudden Shock was the best of these over hurdles and he is taken to make a winning debut over fences.
