      Verdict

      Methag won over 1m6f in June and went close again over the same trip at Nottingham last time. Sanam’s earlier hat-trick including a win over 2m but Twister returned a losing favourite over today’s trip at Chelmsford when only managing third. It remains to be seen if AIRMAX fares any better attempting 2m for the first time but he’s placed over 1m4f on several occasions, including last time at Wolverhampton, so a chance is taken on Ralph Beckett’s charge coming out best.
