Verdict
Prime Venture was disappointing when beaten at Lingfield and Twist On Ginge likewise at Ffos Las. Mr Mcgo has more to do thane when scoring at Bangor now carrying a penalty but Global Stage wasn’t beaten far when second over a shorter trip here last month and Quietly led until the last when third at Wetherby earlier this month. LISTEN TO THE MAN (NAP) was third in a Listed bumper at Sandown in March having made a winning start under Rules at Wetherby earlier. He’s also won a point-to-point and will have had plenty of schooling ahead of his hurdling debut.
