Verdict

THATBEATSBANAGHER has been in fine form over timber recently, and while his efforts over fences for this yard last year left plenty to be desired, Ben Haslem's charge should be well capable from this sort of mark. Midnight Glance notched a third success over hurdles at Market Rasen in March, and with Alan King enjoying a fruitful time of things with chasing debutants in the last 12 months, he could be the main danger. Wavelength and Croagh Patrick may also feature.
