Verdict
None of these have raced over fences before but ARTHAMINT has the best recent form over timber when runner-up at Uttoxeter last month. Dan Skelton's charge is preferred to Onwiththeparty, second at Plumpton when last at the track back in April. Eaton Rock disappointed after scoring at Uttoxeter at the start of the year while Entry To Evrywhere was still well beaten when finding only Key To Milan too good at Newton Abbot. Halo Moon was placed on his hurdling bow but has struggled in subsequent outings.
