        In depth

        Verdict

        Settle Down is a half-brother to three winners on the Flat so should have the pace for this. City Derby has bumper winners among winning relatives and Walk In The Wild, who cost €55,000, is out of a winning hurdler in France. Also bred in France, GERARD MENTOR looks a likely contender on pedigree so gets the nod with the former pointer Thomas Kershaw likely to need a stiffer test of stamina.
