Verdict

Two hugely exciting sorts clash here. LULAMBA has already had the chance to prove he's a top-class novice chaser courtesy of a pair Graded wins and can put that experience to good use and see off last year's Supreme hero Kopek des Bordes, who has been restricted to just the one run over fences. Kargese looks best of the rest in what promises to be a cracker.
