Verdict
THE RIDLER is a speedily-bred half-brother to a 5f juvenile winner and he has a good draw so could give those with experience plenty to think about. Insolente caught the eye at Redcar and will know more today while King's Crown and Honour Your Dreams filled the places behind Fix You at Thirsk two weeks ago. Jaxta was joint favourite at Pontefract 12 days ago but very green and ended up well beaten along with Courtnbowled.
