Verdict

GREANETEEN looks a smart prospect and can give the weight away to his two rivals and extend his unbeaten record over fences. The headstrong Champagne Mystery might appreciate the drop back to 2m but may not have the pace of the selection. Eskendash has a bit to find on official ratings but produced his best effort to date when second in a handicap over track and trip last time.
