Verdict

Most of these carry some risk but if WELSH SAINT can jump adequately and stay this far then he will take all the beating judged on a comfortable bumper victory. The Butcher Said has failed to fulfil expectations but the signs were more positive last time, whilst Jackson Hill is another to have disappointed despite having been backed as though the talent is there. Somekindofstar may have made the frame if he'd remained upright on his hurdling debut, but Mister Murchan and Speedy Gonzalez may have too much to find.
  1. Welsh Saint
