Verdict

Keith Dalgleish’s stable has hit form with a vengeance so, with experience on his side, it’s difficult to oppose last month’s Market Rasen winner HEAR ME OUT with a small penalty. Vivid Luminosity defied market expectations to finish second at Huntingdon and should be thereabouts again while Rock Legend is a half-brother to five winners including the talented Wicklow Brave so is respected. I Like To Move It, a £20,000 half-brother to bumper and hurdles winners, is also worth noting.
