      Verdict

      Shaughnessy found only one too good at Musselburgh when last seen under Rules but has been beaten between the flags since and was pulled up in this last year. TIME LEADER won at Stratford and Leicester last season and ran a cracker for a novice hunter when fifth in the Foxhunters’ at Aintree. Huw Edward’s mount should outclass these.
