Formscan By Tom Weekes - Al Boum Photo’s half-sister AL ARRIVEE (19) should run well over this staying distance on her jumps debut. Runner-up behind smart Murat at last year’s festival, the selection is a dual bumper-winner and while her lack of prior hurdling experience is a concern, will be well schooled and is in top form. Stablemate Mr Hollywood finished second in the 2023 German Derby and contested that year’s Prix de l’Arc. Although well enough held on his debut for current connections in May, he finished third in Royal Ascot’s Queen Alexandra Stakes last month and will be suited by stepping up to this distance. Dual Flat-winner Shoda has been a little underwhelming over jumps while Jeroboam Machin has yet to recapture his old form and is fitted with cheekpieces and a tongue-tie.

A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at starting
Weights - 4-y-o 11st 7lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 12lbs. Mares allowed 7lbs.
