Verdict

PEMBROKE is related to 5 winners and represents a top stable so, although he's likely to peak over jumps/longer trips, he may well have enough ability to make a successful start in an interesting bumper. Bellica also makes plenty of appeal on paper, while Spring Meadow is the clear pick of those with Rules experience.

  1. PEMBROKE
  2. BELLICA
  3. SPRING MEADOW (IRE)
