Verdict

Airton won over 2m at Catterick last time and should go well again despite a 3lb rise. But Paddy A and Ingleby Hollow are both upped in class after scoring at Nottingham and Hamilton respectively and will find life tougher. THISTIMENEXTYEAR (NAP) struggled in a higher grade contest over 1m4f at York on his latest start but had gone close over today’s trip at Nottingham before that and Richard Spencer’s charge may prove good enough. Takbeer won over hurdles at Ludlow when last in action but has placed over track and trip in the past and is preferred to Magnum.
