Verdict

Boite competed at a higher level over hurdles but is jumping fences late in life and probably needs softer going. The younger HATCHER is preferred as he’ll bounce off the ground and goes well fresh – he won four times over the smaller obstacles last summer. Mon Garcon Frankie was a poor pointer who has also been well beaten in both starts under Rules.
