Verdict
The mare Sing Sing Sing and the Hawk Wing gelding Jackstown are both Flat-bred but their purchase price doesn't compare favourably with the £25,000 it cost connections to take home SYNDICATION. Venetia Williams' Accordion gelding is from the same family as a number of useful jumpers in France and has infinitely more scope than his rivals here. He should make a winning start, though Adrenalin Flight is almost guaranteed to see out the trip and could figure. There is little in Thomas Crapper's pedigree to suggest he'll be a money-spinner under NH Rules, however.
