Verdict
Don't Need To Know found only one too good making his chasing bow at Kelso. Furius De Ciergues kept on for pressure when fourth at Fontwell and Brian Hughes takes over the reins while there should be more to come this season from Geordielandgangsta, though he hasn’t raced since January. EAGLE RIDGE is only 1-7 over fences but had excuses at Sedgefield last time and is well worth another try over this longer trip with his stable among the winners lately.
