      Verdict

      You Name Him won at Ludlow after finishing third behind LANDEN CALLING here at the end of last month. Despite that, he is 4lb better off with the winner but Fergal O’Brien’s charge should confirm the form. Hurricane Mitch has been hard to train and needs to recapture his best form and Mercutio Rock has run just once since the end of 2020. Mauritian Bolt definitely need to up his game.
