Verdict

The filly Righteous River probably showed most promise among those that have had a run but it’s hard to imagine that at least a couple of the newcomers won’t be too good as several represent powerful yards. Nicky Henderson’s Laughing Luis is a half-brother to a winning stayer on the Flat but, like Topofthecotswolds, is bred to need further. INVOLVE is by Dansili out of a 1m2f winner on Polytrack. A Towcester bumper would not have been envisaged as an ideal starting point but he should have more speed than these. Azumini also has strong credentials on breeding and is worth a market check.
