        Verdict

        ROCK ON OSCAR is penalised for last month's ready win at Doncaster but Paul Nicholl's charge should have enough to take care of these. Fortunate George was a losing favourite on his hurdling bow at Kempton in November and better is expected from both him and Coeur Tantre, fourth at Tramore last year when trained in Ireland. Teachmetobouggie was not beaten far in a bumper earlier but faded badly on his hurdling debut over track and trip in January.
