Verdict
DINO VELVET won a Class 2 race at Sandown before getting outpaced in the Finale Hurdle at Chepstow. His trainer Alan King should have a good line on Don Bersy as the latter had to be ridden out to beat his Coeur De Lion at Sandown earlier this month when receiving 6lb. Alcanar and Black Buble were both behind in that contest and look held and Tom Symonds’ juvenile looks the danger ahead of the mare Hestina. She found yet another King inmate, Giveaway Glance, much too strong at Doncaster last month when favourite.
