Former pointers Isthereadifference and Quadrato make their debuts under Rules but may find a few of the newcomers have too much speed for them over this trip. MISTER W K looks a likely type on breeding and will get every assistance from the saddle. He gets the nod ahead of the Milan colt Milo Man and Powermaker, who is jumps-bred but may not fulfil his potential until faced with a set of hurdles. The market is best watched with regard to the others.
