Verdict

Lightly raced POGUE always looked a chaser in the making over hurdles and his sound fourth in a race working out pretty well first time over fences concurs with that view. He gets the nod here for the prolific McCain/Hughes combination. Massini Man's first chase race was in a warm event and he acquitted himself with credit so he too looks a big player. Of the chasing debutants Shanroe Tic Tec makes most appeal.
