SHAUGHNESSY couldn't match his useful bumper form at the first time of asking, but he still ran with promise, and should improve markedly with that run under his belt. Nearly Perfect improved when runner-up at Southwell, and has solid claims, with Ask The Weatherman not dismissed for all his hurdles debuut comes late in life.
