      Verdict

      Winning pointer Duke Arcadio made a successful debut under Rules in an Ayr bumper in February and should go well if fully wound-up. But FLYING ANGEL, who had Agrapart well behind when scoring at Worcester in October, ran well under a penalty over 2m4f here last month and can pick up the winning thread again. Braavos must be better than he showed at Southwell and makes more appeal than Flat winner Hallingham and Beautiful Gem.
