Verdict
Orbaan is unquestionably well treated nowadays and fellow veteran Scottish Summit is 7lb better off than when a length-and-a-half behind Wild Lion in a higher grade here in June. The 10-year-old beat THE COOKSTOWN CAFU at Thirsk earlier but Kevin Ryan’s charge was an unlucky loser that day and is also better off at the weights - he’s at his best on ground with some give. Thirsk winners The Turpinator and No Nay Nicki are respected with the latter beating Another Investment by five lengths here in June and Percy's Lad came right back to form at Chester. Quest For Fun would have a chance if forgiven a poor run at Carlisle but Fortamour is best over 6f.
