Verdict

TURENNE would have landed the odds but for departing at Fontwell last month and pushed a promising one close on his first start for his current yard at Catterick the time before, so he's very much the one to beat. Titanium Ring was still finding in second when exiting 2 out on his first outing over hurdles at Uttoxeter and is open to improvement, while Roi du Roume shouldn't be taken lightly either having shown clear promise in a warm-looking Hereford bumper recently.
