Verdict
Claiming jockey Conor Clarke has the dubious honour of riding Geni De La Cour, who hasn't looked a natural jumper in his last two starts but has won a French bumper and has plenty of ability. His stable companion So Scottish, a winner between the flags, has shown potential in bumpers and should go well while it will be a surprise if Whatsavailable isn't in contention, though a longer trip would suit. Patsy's Honour won a Down Royal bumper in good style and has a very smart pedigree but PLAINS INDIAN gave supporters of Gracchus De Palme a fright on testing ground here last time and can go one better.
