    Verdict

    Kicks And Ale won a point a couple of years ago while the Authorized gelding Horaces Pearl is a half-brother to winners on the Flat. Selkirk Grace has had a run but didn’t show much at Ludlow. KINTAIL’s half-brother Kyntara won a bumper on his debut under Rules so he’s preferred to Soir De Gala, who is a half-brother to a winner in France.
