Verdict

HOHLETHELONELY bids to bounce back from a below-par effort at Ludlow in January. The longer trip may have been partly to blame that day and Venetia Williams' eight-year-old is worth another chance, despite a 4lb higher mark. Ministerofinterior was only beaten three lengths over C&D last time and is entitled to respect, though he does most of his winning in selling company. Barnack is an interesting contender, despite an indifferent record this season while Elegant Olive is a recent C&D winner and Cold Knight and Powerful Presence may have more to offer. Saint Luke looks one to be wary of nowadays however.
