Verdict

Black Iceman finished ahead of Annaluna when runner-up over track and trip only to find YORKSHIREMAN (NAP) too good back here last time. The latter was beaten less than a length in third and can finally end a long losing run. Dark Days also ran well over course and distance recently and makes more appeal than course winner Verteux, who scored over hurdles earlier in the month. Weybridge Light is rated much higher over timber than the latter and scored on the Flat here last year.
