Verdict
None of this quartet have won over fences yet but GIN AND TONIC scored over hurdles last month and was runner-up off today’s mark at Huntingdon earlier in the week. He gets the vote back over the larger obstacles. Ballycamp has placed off higher marks than this but hasn’t been in the best of form recently but Master Of Finance finished in front of Le Precieux when third over timber at Fontwell earlier and can figure racing off a 5lb lower mark today.
