MONDO MAN (5) was a high-class flat performer. Creditable second making hurdle debut at Ascot. Entitled to improve for that experience and may take plenty of beating. ST PANCRAS (2) will have more than 16L to find with the top selection based on Ascot running. Since won a Listed hurdle at Musselburgh and might close the gap. SAUVIGNON (1) arrived from France with a noted reputation however was beaten a long way out on British debut. Too early to give up on. Triple winner OPEC (6) is on a retrieval mission after a Chepstow disappointment. Could put her experience to good use.
