Verdict

A moderate opener can go to LORD SPRINGFIELD, who is taken to get his career into full swing post-wind surgery, after disappointing when towards the head of the market last time. Near Kettering is an interesting runner and one to note in the market, along with Geordielandgangsta. The latter's stablemate The Hollow Chap is another to consider, along with Extra Bald.
