Verdict

AALTO went close to defying long odds on his return over C&D earlier in the month and remains on a fair mark based on the pick of his French form, so Ian Williams' gelding gets the nod over Andrew Balding's unexposed filly Hopeful. Signcastle City proved better than ever when scoring at Bath last time and is another for the shortlist.
