Verdict
ESPOIR DE TEILLEE failed to land the odds at Ludlow last time but won one of these events at Leicester before that and is reunited with winning partner Fern O’Brien for this. Gaboriot finished a long way ahead of Diligent when second at Ludlow but has bit to find at the weights with Longhouse Sale. The latter has failed to complete between the flags recently but placed over regulation fences last year.
