Verdict

The vote goes to RUNNINSONOFAGUN, who made all when opening his account in a maiden claimer at Navan last week and he looks capable of following up on this nursery debut off what is probably a fair mark. Allenwood and James The Second rate the main dangers but also look out for Sir Jeremy.
