        Verdict

        FATHER JOHN is unlikely to become a superstar but did cost Middleham Park Racing €34,000 and wouldn’t need to be anything special to make a winning debut. Brian Hughes is an interesting booking for On The Wild Side and he is also worth a market check. Jerry Russell and Bonsai Bay look the pick of those with experience.
