Verdict
LIME STREET has produced a couple of better runs lately at Ffos Las and Hexham. This looks a modest heat and Peter Bowen’s gelding may be able to hang on this time. Star Trouper is slightly better than recent form figures would suggest while there is still time for Chicksgrove Sprite. Barney Rubble and Derrydoon may also have each-way claims.
