      Verdict

      Previous winners C'mon Kenny and Colonial Empire are much respected, especially the former whose yard is in cracking form. Don't Stop Now is a half-brother to a winning hurdler but fellow newcomer WALKINTHEWOODS is a half-brother to the useful Hometown Boy and he might be a better long-term prospect.
