Verdict
MASTER MALACHY didn’t jump as well as he normally does at Sedgefield last time but could have these on the stretch around here if he is back on song. Snowy Clouds should make a better chaser than hurdler but probably over further and Dibble Decker is a more interesting chasing newcomer having already won a point and a couple of hurdle races. Touchthesoul is exposed and not improving.
