Verdict
Baron De Midleton is also engaged in the 1.05 Kelso while Arqoob was entered in the 2.25 Sandown yesterday. Swaffham Bulbeck was clearly out of his depth in the Greatwood at Cheltenham last month but Matchless has been raised a further pound since a narrow defeat at Doncaster. Teddy Blue may need a confidence-booster but Ludlow second Javert Allen has solid claims, though MR MACKAY (NAP) also gets a weight-for-age allowance. The latter has run a couple of nice races in better company since winning his maiden here in October.
