Verdict

The bumper winners LITTLE AWKWARD and Mountain Leopard look the pair to focus on, with Oliver Sherwood's 4-y-o narrowly selected to make a successful start over obstacles. There is a race in My Boy James if the ability is still there back from over 2 years off and he needs keeping an eye on.
