Verdict
SOMEWHAT CLOUDY found one too good over hurdles at Sedgefield and the winner has won again since. Donald McCain’s mare looks to have every chance on her chasing debut. Blackwell Bay also takes on the larger obstacles for the first time but Dogem By Design posted his best effort over fences so far when second at Catterick. Zara's Universe may improve on her second outing over fences though remains a maiden after 21 starts.
