Formscan By John O'Riordan - A bumper winner here last March, LE LABO can strike on his first start over hurdles. Although subsequently well beaten in a Grade 2 race at Aintree, that form was unquestionably too bad to be true. Sent off 4/1 on that occasion, his shrewd connections were obviously expecting a decent effort from the son of Mount Nelson. Off the track since that contest in April, the five-year-old can get his career back on track. Dual bumper scorer Minella Emperor has to be a strong contender under his owner Michael O'Neill. The son of Shantou is a smart sort who should be capable of even better. Holy See sets a fair standard among those that have already run over flights.
A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at starting
Weights - 11st 12lbs. Mares allowed 7lbs.
Riders - Qualified Riders under I.N.H.S. Rules.
