Verdict
New Reality won at Perth in September and almost followed up under a penalty at Wetherby but several of his rivals have been in winning form on the Flat. Spanish Hustle only won a Class 6 handicap at Brighton, however, and was pulled up over hurdles at Aintree in June. Greystoke has won twice on the level this year and Graystone has been successful three times. Ivynator won over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last month but the interesting one is IN THIS WORLD, who is a half-brother to a winning hurdler in France and has joined Dan Skelton since proving his stamina over 1m6f at Royan in June.
