        Verdict

        Lenny Lungo looks to have found a good opportunity to restore the confidence of his promising chaser Ballystone. He blundered badly last time out over fences but had previously ran with credit over the smaller obstacles at Carlisle. Suited by the expected going the nine-year-old should have too much experience for these in-and-out rivals and with the promising young conditional Gary Berridge taking seven pounds off his back he is the confident TEAMtalk selection. Hirt Lodge had Gimme Shelter, Nisbet and Just Sal all behind when winning here 19 days ago. Entitled to improve on that form, he is rated as the selection's biggest danger especially if the heavens open. Kinfauns Lady put in one of her better performances last time out and has shown a liking for Kelso in the past. She is still to win a race over hurdles however.
