Verdict
NADAITAK stayed on well to get off the mark over 2m5f here two weeks ago. He should stay the extra but it would be no surprise if Kempton fourth Ratfacemcdougall made a race of it receiving 7lb plus Max Kendrick’s allowance as he will relish the step up to 3m. Hurdling debutant Sharp Reply will pick up some prize money if completing.
