Verdict

This is an open looking bumper where none of the runners can be easily dismissed. The Flame was impressive in winning his point to point and now finds himself the capable hands of a top trainer. He should go well, as should Warthog, another point to point graduate who now runs for eye catching connections. Preference though, is for AMATEUR. John Flint's charge has run two nice races for different trainers, and though the quick successive change of handlers isn't ideal, perhaps the first time cheek pieces can solve his issue with running green and encourage him to get off the mark at the third time of asking.
  1. Amateur
  2. The Flame
  3. Warthog
