Verdict
Lucky Robin is making his chasing bow but has placed here over hurdles off this mark so warrants respect. CAP DU NORD has already finished second twice over fences and it may be his turn today as he may have needed the run at Exeter on New Year’s Day. Mistercobar hinted at ability at Wetherby two runs ago so may be a better long-term prospect than either Braavos or Flying Jack.
