        Verdict

        Carlisle second Rhymers Ha' is improving with experience and will make a bold bid to get off the mark in this. Edmund hinted at ability last winter while Rendl Beach was second in a point-to-point in the spring. But a tentative vote goes to UNDERTHEFLOORBOARDS, who has arguably been taking on better company in Ireland and hasn't travelled over the water at the onset of the winter for the good of his health. The market will be the best guide to the chances of newcomers Ballyvoque, Few And Far and Theboyfrombrazil but all may need more time.
