Race preview
JULIUS DES PICTONS ticks plenty of boxes having returned to action with a creditable second at Uttoxeter on his first start for Jamie Snowden. He found only Western Knight, a subsequent winner at Ascot too good that day, and could have the measure of Geturguccion on the strength of that form. The latter was no match for the winner when runner-up at Ludlow, but that was her first attempt over hurdles and another good account seems likely. The bumper winner Go West is also worth noting on his hurdling bow.
