Verdict

Go Bob Go had a run on the Flat last month but didn’t show much. Clear The Runway placed twice in Irish points and Haute Estime has made the frame in bumpers but Presentandcounting has won five times over fences since beaten by HELLO JUDGE here in April and Ann Hamilton’s novice can defy his penalty. The market will be the best guide to the chances of the Skelton newcomer Gym Tonic.
