Verdict

GAELIC ROVER made a promising start to his Rules career when third to a good prospect at Ayr 4 weeks ago and, with the timefigure supporting the performance, he's selected to get off the mark at the second time of asking under Rules. Le Beau Madrik has shown plenty of ability in finding only one too good on both his outings in bumpers, while Ballyeaston seems sure to improve on his opening effort in this sphere at Aintree.
