Verdict

NOT NEVER can record his third win in his last four outings by taking the concluding handicap hurdle on the card. The six-year-old hails from a stable who can boast a 22% strike-rate (2/9) over hurdles here and an additional six placed efforts from just nine runners in recent seasons and with the trip and ground both likely to be in his favour he can get the better of Vado Forte who was a winner last time and remains open to improvement. The Dubai Way is unbeaten since going under rules and can finish third on today's handicap debut while money for Catchin Time would be interesting as he goes in search of a second victory in this particular event.
