In depth

Verdict

Polarbrook is the only one of these to have so far earned an official rating but the fact that he was beaten in a seller at Worcester last month is a bit off-putting and FOUR SHUCK MEN has more scope. Already a winner between the flags and in a bumper, the latter can only improve on his third at Sedgefield over this longer trip. Henri Parry Morgan is another open to improvement and Mr Trilby, another winning pointer, is interesting on his hurdles bow.
