Winner over hurdles on sole start in France and bettered opening efforts for present stable when running out a comfortable winner of a Musselburgh novice (16.4f) in March. This is much tougher.
Successful in two hurdle races at 2m on good to soft and soft ground. A winner at 9-4 in a hurdle race at Musselburgh over 2m (good to soft) on his latest outing last month, beating Mackenberg by 6l. Has also won at Dieppe this season.

Verdict
Adagio has been a massive success story this season, bought out of a claimer in France before Grade 1 success at Chepstow and finishing runner-up in the Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham last time. He looks sure to give another good account, but it might pay to side with the freshness of MONMIRAL. Paul Nicholls' charge has been primed for this assignment since beating Nassalam by seven and a half lengths at Haydock in February (Adagio beat the same rival by two and a half lengths at Chepstow in January) and he may have too much boot for his main rival around here. Paros, representing the stable that have won the last couple of runnings of this contest, might prove best of the remainder.
Verdict
MONMIRAL is one of the most exciting juvenile hurdlers around and made it 4-4 with the minimum of fuss at Haydock in February. Arriving fresh having skipped Cheltenham, Paul Nicholls' charge is fancied to maintain his 100% record. Adagio ran a fine race to finish second in the Triumph and should pose the biggest threat, ahead of John Locke.
