      Verdict

      Prior to justifying short odds on his hurdling debut at Southwell, MULLIGAN'S MAN had won a point-to-point and a bumper and looks to face a straightforward task here. Donald McCain could easily saddle a 1-2 as I'm A Gangster has shown signs of ability but needs to improve his jumping. None of the others look capable of causing an upset.
