Verdict

MR MADEIT has won six of his 10 starts between the flags and will likely be a short price to make a winning start under Rules. He should be too good for It Was Me if putting in a clear round as both of the latter's hunter chase victories have come over shorter trips, though he is a prolific winner in point-to-points. Barring accidents, it's difficult to see either Master Workman or Good Order having a hand in the finish.
