Verdict

LARGY SHARK improved from his bumper form at the first time of asking over hurdles, winning in fine style at Ayr in November, and he can follow up with further progress to come. Cerendipity is also open to improvement after scoring at Catterick last time and is feared most, ahead of Snowy Evening.
