Verdict
EASKEY LAD (NAP) returned to winning ways over track and trip last month and has his favoured good ground once again. Tom O'Roughley scored at Warwick on his reappearance though was well beaten by Boagrius when the latter won at Worcester in October. Thundersockssundae races mainly at Huntingdon nowadays and won twice there last year while Coal Fire debuts over fences having failed to figure in four starts over hurdles.
