      Verdict

      This looks an above-average bumper for the track. Saquon made a promising start under Rules when second at Ludlow but HARDY FELLA (NAP) can come good having a first run for new connections. His fourth in a Listed race at Cheltenham is working out well as he was only a length behind Aucunrisque, who has won twice since over hurdles, and the sixth won by 10 lengths at Huntingdon on Friday. Armadar, Deere Mark and Hourvari have all shown ability while Monteplex is a half-brother to the useful chaser Soll.
