Verdict

Alan King's horses are going well so Godsmejudge, a winner between the flags at Durrow in February and costing connections £38,000 at the Sales in April, looks certain to fancied to make a winning debut under Rules. Evan Williams' horses aren't in quite such good form but OSCAR SUNSET looks the one to be on here. Out of a winning hurdler, he made a very promising start in a Ffos Las bumper before easily beating two rivals in a similar race at Ludlow. Fox Appeal is bred for jumping but didn't show much sign of ability in bumpers while Ruby Bay and Norwich Well have won between the flags but performed poorly over timber.
