Verdict

Successful on his only start in points, SPADESTEP shaped like a sure-fire future winner under Rules when runner-up behind one boasting much more experience on hurdles bow at Carlisle 47 days ago. He can confirm the promise of that effort and come out on top. Junker d'Allier should appreciate the return to calmer waters and is a definite threat. Hasten Slowly and Moon Phases complete the shortlist in the opener.
