Verdict

LET IT SETTLE had an excuse at Cork last time and might be worth chancing having returned to the same mark as when second to a next-time-out scorer there in July. Last-time-out Cork scorer Chesterbaylad heads the many dangers along with Lunar Landscape and Convincing. Direct Approach is an unexposed handicap newcomer from a top stable, while Masego tackles his first handicap hurdle on the back of a good spell on the Flat.
