Verdict
Diligent will strip fitter for his fifth at Taunton and Envoye Special made a winning return to action at Ffos Las but that pair are giving 8lb, not including riders’ allowances, to MAGIC SAINT, who was beaten less than a length at Hereford on his hunter chase debut in a race in which Exit Poll unseated his rider when just starting to make ground.
