FormscanBy Alan Magee - EVIES VLADIMIR needs to bounce back after a disappointing effort over 2m6f at Punchestown last time but previously advertised his claims when beating all bar better fancied stablemate The Lovely Man over course and distance with Bigbraveboy and Ceroc both behind. The Shirocco gelding has gained both previous wins on testing ground and may have most to fear from Gringo D’aubrelle who won a valuable 3m1f handicap hurdle here on his penultimate start and races off an 18lb lower mark than his current hurdle rating. Bigbraveboy reversed places with the selection in the aforementioned 2m6f Punchestown event and merits respect.
