In depth
Verdict
All of Full Trottle’s wins under Rules have come in hunter chases and FINNEGAN’S GARDEN (NAP) makes more appeal. Andy Irvine’s veteran never seems to run a bad race and is now 4lb lower than for his last victory just over 12 months ago. Definite Dilemma is the least exposed and has placed in both starts over fences so far while Celtic Joy has had wind surgery since last seen. Twenty Twenty won at Plumpton in January but hasn’t reproduced that form in two starts since.
