Verdict
Templier was probably feeling the effects of a busy few weeks when failing to complete the hat-trick at Market Rasen in March. Millies Mite is 0-23 while Berliet Express was pulled up in his first run for a new yard but EXTRAORDINARY MAN made all and kept on well to get off the mark at Hereford and a 4lb rise is negated by his rider’s 5lb claim. Up For Appeal, a winner over hurdles in August, will have learned plenty from his chasing bow so can’t be ignored.
