Verdict
A modest affair can go to POINT N SHOOT, who is best on heavy going. He’s not badly treated at present and Tom Buckley takes off a massive 10lb. Steel Native is a dual course winner but he disappointed here last time off today’s mark and is closely matched with the Hands Of Stone, who hasn’t really taken to hurdles De Bene Esse wasn’t disgraced back under Rules at Taunton so looks the pick of the remainder.
