Verdict

GUN RUNNER CASH attempts to defy a penalty having made a winning debut at Perth last month. Gordon Elliott’s charge should have the measure of these and gets the vote. Timetotalk placed at Musselburgh on his debut but has been off the track for over a year and Huntsman's Call disappointed at Market Rasen last summer. Blazing Court is related to winner over jumps and is a newcomer to note
