Verdict

A dual hurdles winner this summer, NO WORRIES had little go right in his hat-trick bid over shorter here 19 days ago, stumbling badly having been snatched up and unable to reel in the leader. He's well worth another chance from the same mark and earns the vote to come out on top. Imphal, who noticeably travelled well at Plumpton recently, Teenage Dirtbag and Celtic Tara head up the dangers.
