      In depth

      Verdict

      CARLO DU BERLAIS got taken off his feet over 1m6f at Ludlow. He’ll be a lot happier over this extra 2f on a more galloping track and can get the better of another former pointer in Pembroke. Theatre Man also graduates from that sphere but Spring Meadow has already run in a bumper and showed up well for a long way at Ffos Las. Kentanddover is a half-brother to a Flat winner and appeals most of the others.
