Verdict

None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to TORNEO who rates just the pick of the weights on the back of an excellent Windsor second and can gain a deserved first success of the current campaign. Doyen Du Bar seems sure to go well in his own bid for a first victory of the season now reverted in trip, while Bleu D'Enfer is weighted to go well and both Hombre De Guerra and Chapel Green shouldn't be underestimated with their yard back among the winners.
