Verdict
Datito, the winner of a bumper at Haydock, looks to have been found the ideal opportunity to get off the mark over hurdles. Beau Coup is getting the hang of things, but his future looks to be in handicaps. Hurdling debutante Supreme Optimist, will be one to keep an eye on regarding the future and Madam's Man could well find this trip round here, on the sharp side.
