Verdict
Sutton Manor hasn’t been in the best of form so far this season but is eased in grade. Cash Again won over fences off this mark here in March though, like Sophie Olivia, appears better over the larger obstacles. Kildrum wasn’t disgraced on a couple of occasions here in the spring but Jelski looks a few pounds too high at present. Lady Bowes remains unexposed but FOLKS LIKE US looks better treated so gets the nod ahead of last month’s course and distance winner Shoughall's Boy.
