Verdict

ACCORDING TO TREV scored at the first time of asking over fences when successful over track and trip. A conditional's allowance negates a 6lb penalty and Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge is rated much higher over hurdles than today's chief rival Brassick. The latter won a chase at Uttoxeter in July and also carries a penalty. Next Edit didn't fare to badly on his chasing bow at Ffos Las and though he has something to find with the principals, he should have the beating of Billy Teal and Inandover.
