Verdict

DUELING BANJOS doesn't look like the easiest customer to handle but he looks like the one on a lenient mark and he's taken to score in hope of his temperament holding up. Dip Deeper is another who has benefited from the addition of cheekpieces and he should remain competitive off his new mark while Bells of Ailsworth has the winning habit and it's possible he's still on an upward curve.
  1. Dueling Banjos
  2. Dig Deeper
  3. Bells Of Ailsworth
