      Verdict

      Air Horse One was well supported when easily landing a Ffos Las handicap last month for which he's been hit with a 9lb rise. Ballyellis has won three sellers and a claimer since September, the latest by 17 lengths, though he's 10lb higher in a tougher contest. Limited Reserve looked a fine prospect two years ago, completing a Haydock double at this level on heavy going but he hasn't shown much since returning to action. BURROWS PARK (NAP) won a lucrative Kelso handicap in March and looked on the way back to form when chasing home Chti Balko at Bangor when the slow early pace didn't play to his strengths. He looks ready to strike again though the stable's new recruit Fally Jem is very interesting as though only four she's won over both hurdles and fences in France.
