In depth
Verdict
As usual with a field of newcomers, the betting may offer some clues. Argonauta’s dam is related to a couple of smart jumps winners while Geromino is from a family of winners in France. Tip Top Tonto is related to the useful Kings Palace and Saint Patric’s half-brother won a bumper while Twoshotsoftequila and Amma Lord represent an in-form yard. But Brian Hughes’s presence on the Flat-bred KEEP KIDDING takes the eye and Richard Fahey’s charge is preferred to stablemate Colorun Des Carles.
