Verdict

CATCH HIM DERRY made a winning handicap debut before coming well clear with Gwennie May Boy (who scored easily on both subsequent starts, including a valuable prize at Aintree), so he looks well in off 5 lb higher and should get back to winning ways. Ten Lengths Tom is a likely improver up in trip for handicap debut and Mt Fugi Park is also a danger.

  1. CATCH HIM DERRY (IRE)
  2. TEN LENGTHS TOM (IRE)
  3. MT FUGI PARK (IRE)
