oddschecker Verdict
ALEXEI enjoyed a fruitful campaign last season, with victories in the Greatwood and the Kingwell. With the notable exclusion of Mydaddypaddy, Joe Tizzard's 158-rated star has a bit in hand over the remainder of his opponents and is difficult to oppose on ground that will suit him well. Grade 1 4-Y-O Juvenile Hurdle winner Mange Tout might be the main threat because she's still open to bags of improvement, while the Select Hurdle runner-up Lucky Place is most appealing of the remainder.
Prediction: 1st Alexei, 2nd Mange Tout, 3rd Lucky Place
