Verdict
Cintex' form figures flatter him as he was beaten 66 lengths when third on his chasing bow and was second of three over hurdles here in May. The Ogle Gogle Man had shown little over fences before reappearing at Sedgefield last month where he was well supported but beaten into second. He again attracted attention in the market at Ludlow and only went down a short-head so connections will be looking for compensation. Robin Deuz Pois failed to reach a place in nine starts over timber and was beaten 17 lengths when runner-up on his chasing bow but FINDUSATGORCOMBE (NAP) loves it around here and can gain his third victory on the track. Jimmy Frost's charge scored on his first visit over hurdles then landed a course and distance handicap in June before finishing runner-up to Bermeo last month.
