Verdict
It's difficult to make a strong case for any of this bunch. THORNCLIFFER gets the token vote as he scored in testing ground at Wetherby before failing to complete his latest start. Franklin Roosevelt got no further than the first fence at Leicester where he unseated having tried to refuse but Top Benefit went close on his latest start over fences when third at Towcester and he can figure. Kilvergan Boy never threatened despite making the frame at Ludlow last time but Pretty Penny finished a bit closer at Plumpton on her latest start.
