Verdict

FINE CASTING boasts a steadily progressive profile over hurdles, off the mark in good style in a Ffos Las maiden (15.8f) last month. He looks a solid proposition now handicapping with the prospect of more to come and he earns the vote. Fellow handicap debutant Chanceux is feared, along with Kuraka, who may well be aided by refitting of blinkers, and Canford Light.
