        Verdict

        PHOBIAPHILLIAC came good in a maiden hurdle at Southwell when stepped up to today’s trip. Nicky Henderson has started to notch-up the winners and this could be another for the yard. Reality Bites is a winning pointer making his debut under Rules and so is Honourable Henry. Mickieblueeyes made a winning start in a bumper at Plumpton early this year but Lithic was less than fluent on his hurdling debut last month.
