Verdict
LASER HAWK changed hands at the sales in April having won three point-to-points in Ireland. Evan Williams will have a chase career in mind for his new acquisition but he might have the pace for this against largely modest opposition. Parish Business, another ex-pointer, only found one too good at Worcester in May and looks a threat while Thespis Of Icaria was fourth at Ffos Las in June and has won a couple of bumpers. Significant Move has won four times on the Flat up to 1m3f and may be the pick of the remainder.
