Verdict
Bangor debut winner WELLNTYNE gets 8lb from dual winner Socialist Agenda taking into account Jack Tudor’s claim and that may be enough to halt the run of Adam Wedge’s mount. Li'l Sebastian has had wind surgery but is having a first run on Turf. The market should tell us all we need to know about the debutants but Cheeky Ches is bred for jumping being by Sulamani out of a Kayf Tara mare.
