Verdict
There doesn't appear to be a lot between the likely market leaders in this. Crank Em Up shaped with promise on his first start under Rules at Wincanton but so did REILLY'S MINOR at Warwick and it's Warren Greatrex' charge that get the nod. Free Stone Hill has his first run for Dan Skelton but was second over a longer trip at Tipperary in October and King Uther has twice only found one too good at Plumpton.
