Verdict

Smart Flat performer RAYMOND TUSK didn't meet expectations when tried over hurdles last winter, but he may do better now handicapping on his return to this sphere and his opening mark looks a fair one. Hugos New Horse got the job done at Wincanton despite still showing signs of greenness so should have more to offer, while Sadler's Bay and Galahad Threepwood also remain with potential.

  1. RAYMOND TUSK (IRE)
