Verdict

IMAGINARIUM quickly attained a useful level on the Flat in Ireland and, sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut, he makes plenty of appeal. Will Knott is in a much more suitable race and a big step forward looks on the cards, with Presenting Max one to monitor very closely in the market.
