Verdict
The Ferry Master and Whateva Next have both won between the flags and it would be no surprise if both were thereabouts in a race like this with the former preferred. LE GRAND FROMAGE is a brother to several winning jumpers, including the smart Ballyandy, and Tom Lacey has probably found him a good opportunity to make a winning debut. New Frontier is out of a mare that has produced winners with all three of her offspring to race so far so he is another interesting newcomer. Darry Desbois looks the best of those with experience under Rules.
