Verdict

Lucinda Russell has her string in excellent nick so her WHISTLE STOP TOUR, a £115,000 purchase after landing an Iirsh point in March, is fancied to make a winning debut in this sphere. Jeepydoff Meel holds much the best form of those with experience and rates a big threat if shrugging off a below-par Stratford fourth last time. Kilta and Hawkseye View appeal as the pick of the rest for place purposes.
