Verdict
Cardboard Gangster would have obvious claims if turning up but had a favourite’s chance in the 1.30 Worcester yesterday. Christian Williams’ chasers boast a 50 per cent strike-rate here and AYE AYE CHARLIE was progressing over the larger obstacles before a run over hurdles at Stratford last month. Zoffalee is 0-13 over fences and looks held by Kauto D'Amour on Market Rasen running but Larry Looby has hit form with a vengeance and won’t go down without a fight.
