RACING POST VERDICT

The most appealing option in an uncompetitive opener is TUBA, who has a bit to prove over hurdles but is a dual AW winner this spring.

Racing Post Pick
Tuba
Our Expert Tip

TUBA may be worth taking on here and the vote goes to POPA RICH.
Now nicely handicapped and running from a much more attractive mark, POPA RICH can take the opening race.
