Verdict
DOTTIES STAR made a promising start at Huntingdon before finding life tough in a Listed contest at Cheltenham. He should be more at home in this company and figure in the finish. Taita Hills is a recent winner between the flags debuting under Rules while All Authorized is a brother to the useful bumper and hurdles winner I Am Maximus and is preferred to fellow newcomers Bing Belle and Drishogue.
