Verdict

GLOBAL STAGE fell when last in action in February but was placed at Leicester before that and can defy an absence on these terms as Fergal O’Brien’s charge is well clear of the rest at the weights. Nicely Indeed has the more recent form with a second at Sedgefield and has plenty in hand over Bafana Blue on today’s terms but the Irish challenger Airdrigh remains hard to recommend despite the presence of Richard Johnson in the saddle.
