    Verdict

    BALLYARTHUR (NAP) made a fast-improving subsequent winner work hard for victory over 2m4f here earlier in the month. Unaccountably dropped a pound since, he should go one better today. Winning hurdler Enola Gay made a promising start over the larger obstacles at Taunton against more-experienced rivals. He should be winning soon but his stamina will have to be taken on trust over this much longer trip. Some Are Lucky is 8lb lower than when third in this last year but has become hard to place.
