Tracked leaders on outside, pushed along after 4th, lost place when not fluent 6th, behind 2 out, stayed on approaching last, went 3rd towards finish, no chance with winner op 13/2 tchd 11/2 and tchd 7/1
Vive Le Roi (9/4), Elysian Prince (3/1), Mizen Master (7/2), Take A Break (6/1), Affaire D'Honneur (10/1), Oksana (11/1), Ayelya (14/1)
MIZEN MASTER won at Worcester last time out and despite having to give plenty of weight all round he is fancied to follow-up here in a relatively uncompetitive race. Vive Le Roi is the most obvious threat having run well in his last couple of races and this trip may be ideal. Take A Break also appeals as quite fairly treated on his return to hurdling.
