Verdict

A few in with chances but the suggestion is FAMOSO, who made a winning return to fences at Hereford earlier this month and Matt Sheppard's 8-y-o is fancied to defy a 5 lb higher mark at the expense of First Angel, who made it 2 wins from 4 starts for this yard (both at Stratford) when last seen back in summer 2023. Torneo should improve on his initial effort over fences so can edge out Hatos for third.

Famoso (Ire) silk

Largely consistent type who stripped fitter for his recent hurdling spin to make a winning return to fences at Hereford (16f, good) earlier this month, taking his record at that track to 2 wins and 6 placed efforts from 9 starts. 5 lb higher and fancied to be bang there.

First Angel (Fr) silk

Drew a blank for Laura Morgan but struck at the first time of asking for present yard at Stratford in May 2023. Beaten favourite next 2 starts but back to winning ways in first-time cheekpieces at Stratford (17f, good) when last seen 15 months ago. Betting can guide expectations on return.

Torneo (Fr) silk

Fairly useful Flat winner in France and won a weak juvenile hurdle at Wetherby in January. Found only one too good on handicap debut at Fontwell following month but couldn't cope with a no-hiding-place introduction to chasing on return at Uttoxeter last month. Should improve, though.
