        Verdict

        Gary Moore's yard continues in excellent form and he saddles both Flaming Weapon and Krasivi's Boy. It is hard to choose between them but we will side with Jamie Moore's mount Flaming Weapon, Looking Great could be the best of the rest. The selection is a son of Unfuwain out of a Gulch mare so ground and trip will not be a problem. He was only rated 50 on the flat but the trainer has on many occasions improved horses over the jumps and this could be another one. Krasivi's Boy has a superb flat pedigree and was at one stage rated in the seventies. Like the selection he will have been schooled and it would be no surprise to see this one in the shake up. Looking Great has shown plenty of promise in two races to date and looks easily the pick of the experienced runners. However this looks set to go to a newcomer and Flaming Weapon could be the one.
