Verdict

Up To Something edged home in a junior bumper at Wetherby on his debut last month, showing a nice attitude in the process. He's likely to make a bold bid to defy his penalty and makes more appeal than Ballylifen, placed at both Ludlow and Plumpton but the type to do better when upped in distance. Princesse Katie has hinted at ability but is starting to look a little exposed so the vote goes to Venetia Williams' newcomer DUNGENESS. A half-brother to a couple of hurdle winners, he's by Beat All so shouldn't be short of pace and his yard is in much better form nowadays.
