Verdict

JOHN BETJEMAN placed three times last season and, though now 0-22, it was a surprise that he was allowed to start at 50/1on his reappearance at Lingfield. None of the others have shown any worthwhile form while George Of Hearts was a miler on the Flat so will have stamina to prove, though the booking of Richard Johnson is a positive sign. Baignard may be best of the rest.
