Verdict

It could pay to stick with with the progressive SANAM. He shrugged off a 3lb rise to win easily over 1m6f here last time having scored over course and distance before that and the four-timer beckons for Ed Dunlop’s charge. Conkering Hero won over today’s trip at Kempton recently and an apprentice’s allowance negates a rise in the weights while winning hurdler Final Choice won at Bath when last on the Flat in 2016. Tynecastle Park was placed in an amateurs’ race at Southwell but that was back in January and Seventii is preferred.
