      Verdict

      Furzig has been thereabouts in a couple of higher grade contests this month and there is little between the latter and Protected Guest on running over 1m2f here earlier. Oslo has been raised 5lb for winning over 1m2f at Chelmsford a fortnight ago with THE TRADER returning a beaten favourite. But Mark Johnston’s charge was only beaten a neck over today’s longer trip before that and can turn the tables re-opposing on better terms. The remaining trio have all been hurdling with Midnights Legacy debuting on the all-weather having undergone wind surgery since last in action.
