Verdict

Tim Vaughan highlighted this race as the likely next objective for KOVERA after he put his five rivals to the sword over fences at Sedgefield (3m2f) last week. Officially ahead of the handicapper in another very modest contest, he's strongly fancied to break his duck over hurdles at the eleventh attempt. Permission Granted is the sole Rose Dobbin-trained runner on today's Newcastle card and he rates as a possible contender for the runners-up berth with stamina question marks against the name of the otherwise slowly improving Bertie Blake.
  1. Kovera
