    Verdict

    TRUDIE GLEN is the only one of these to have run under Rules when finishing a creditable third at Ludlow and may prove the one to side with. The remaining trio have all won between the flags and debut for new yards with Iorangi De L‘isle preferred to Gwash and Defence Witness having joined Donald McCain’s yard after landing a maiden point-to-point in Ireland.
