Verdict
Kerry Lee has made a tremendous start to her training career and the 46,000 euros EATON HILL, who is related to a couple of smart performers, is taken to continue his stable's good run. Black Ivory is a half-brother to a winning stayer on the Flat while Bestiarius is a half-brother to the winning jumper Night In Milan. Blakerigg is out of a winning bumper and should have enough pace while Northern Ireland-based Stuart Crawford is always to be feared with his bumper horses and the French-bred Dear Sire is entitled to the greatest respect. What Kept You is another to keep an eye on as he cost £35,000 and is by Kalanisi out of a mare who won on the Flat and over hurdles.
