Verdict

STRIKING OUT ran his best race for some time on the back of 12 weeks off when runner-up at Ludlow 7 days ago and with this longer trip entitled to hold no fears, he shades the vote to confirm the promise of that run operating from the same mark. This is competitive though, with Ballybeen, Jack Doyen and Justshortofabubble a trio of others expected to feature.
