Verdict

SCHMILSSON and Finest View have both taken very well to fences and preference is for the former, who made it 2-2 in this sphere at Perth last month. A 5 lb rise for that looks fair and he appeals as the type to go on to better things. Aspire Tower is talented, but this is a big ask under a hefty weight and Black Hawk Eagle will need to step up on his hurdles form if he's to make winning start over fences.
