Verdict

Winning pointer MISTER SPINGSPRONG scored over hurdles at the first time of asking. He has a penalty to carry for his win at Hexham but scored by a distance and can go in again. Lyric Street came good over timber at Sedgefield and should make another bold bid while Fight Away Boys showed some progress to finish fourth at this track on his latest start. Bumper winner Aiaam Al Namoos is one to note if taking to hurdles and Apachee Prince is another hurdling newcomer to keep an eye on.
