Verdict
Graceful Willlow and The Gay Cavalier have shown little so far with the latter having the best form of that pair. The newcomer Deinonychus makes little appeal on breeding which leaves us with PRIORS BROOK. The latter showed some improvement to finish fifth over course and distance last time and Andrew Balding's charge looks to have a good opportunity to open his account.
