Verdict
CLEARPOINT went for a fair chunk at the sales as a yearling and there is plenty of speed lurking within his pedigree. Kevin Ryan has had a very modest start with his youngsters this season and whatever Hernan Cortes achieves tonight will be a bonus while Ludo's Landing is the first foal of a Group 3 winner and Humble Spark hails from an in-form yard.
