Verdict

SILENT MAN is low mileage for his age and is taken to complete the hat-trick given the manner of his win at Lingfield. Dentley de Mee finally opened his account over fences at Wincanton and remains on a fair mark, while Sunny Express was beaten only by a handicap blot at Musselburgh but does have his stamina to prove.
