        Verdict

        Full Blast made his UK debut in a very hot juvenile contest at Chepstow a year ago but was beaten a long way. He was pulled up in his only subsequent start at Fontwell in December and hasn't been seen since. He's undoubtedly better than that but could find GENERAL GINGER a tough nut to crack on his reappearance. Harry Fry's gelding improved markedly on his first run over timber when staying on strongly to score at Kempton in May and can defy a penalty. The others all have plenty of improving to do if they are to play a part.
