Verdict

This is tricky, however the vote goes to EXMINSTER, who made a pleasing return when finishing a close fifth at Beverley 10 days ago. That should have blown away any cobwebs and with first-time cheekpieces applied, he's taken to double his tally. Cloch Nua, Stellar Queen and Canny Fettle are just a handful of others to consider.

  1. EXMINSTER (IRE)
  2. CLOCH NUA
  3. STELLAR QUEEN
