In depth

Verdict

TOPLANDER makes his debut under Rules but has looked a promising sort in point-to-points and was only headed close home at Easingwold earlier this month. John Wade has done well with similar types in the past and he gets the vote here ahead of the more exposed Temple Green. Minstalad may be the pick of the remainder as Clueless is a modest sort nowadays and Impact Zone has a poor record in hunter chases.
