Verdict
Max Of Stars took a fierce hold at Hexham but led until a bad mistake at the last and hung on for second place, 11 lengths ahead of the re-opposing Uncle Matthew. WAITARA is making her debut for David Pipe but she’s won twice on the Flat in France this year and should take all the beating if her jumping is up to scratch. Vitani placed over 1m6f at Bath latest so should have no problems lasting home.
