Racing Post verdict
Third-partyLudo's Landing holds a modest edge in the ratings over Northern Brave and looks well-suited to this twelve-furlong trip at Thirsk, giving connections every reason for optimism at Class 5 level. Northern Brave, four pounds adrift, represents the chief threat and will need to find improvement to bridge that gap, while La Peregrina and That Darn Cantor face stiffer tasks on current form. The selection should prove good enough if reproducing its best. **Ludo's Landing** is our selection.
