Verdict

A race severely lacking in depth looks rather at the mercy of LOUGHAN who is easily the most appealing of the Skelton trio. Trevor Hemmings' five-year-old ran well in his only bumper and better still on hurdles debut at Huntingdon. The only real danger looks to be well-bred Imperial Icon in the Imperial Commander colours with his lone bumper run one of great promise. Skelton's second string Bear Spray may prove best of the rest.
  1. Loughan
