Verdict

Frenchman made a decent start at Kempton in October. He'll have learned plenty that day and the new partnership of Charlie Hills and Darryll Holland should get plenty of winners this year. New Agenda showed promise in Ireland last year but was an expensive flop at Galway last July and hasn't been seen since. RONNIE BAIRD has already had half-a-dozen starts but ran well in most of them, including at Kempton in October when making his all-weather debut. Stepping up in trip shouldn't be a problem so he gets the vote. Dor's Law has shown some ability while a market move for newcomer Knights Table would be significant as he's a half-brother to two winners including the useful Louis The Pious.
