Verdict

DOUGLAS TALKING is every inch a chaser on looks and duly made a promising start over fences when making all at Musselburgh 11 days ago, jumping well and forging clear. He seems sure to improve and win more races in this sphere so can defy a penalty. Somekindofstar coped well with the drop back to this trip when winning at Fakenham and is next best ahead of Desque de L'Isle.
