Verdict

Lots of these arrive with a question mark against them so this could go to PEBBLE ISLAND who took a big step forward on just his third hurdling run when fourth at Bellewstown last time and can build on it to get off the mark. Both Whats New and Manoir De Mirande have the form to play a big part but aren't the most reliable which tempers enthusiasm.
