Verdict

A bit of a lull with only four runners entered in this. Dan Skelton’s NOT THAT FUISSE will likely start at short odds after a facile victory at Uttoxeter as he’s officially rated 11lb superior to Limerick maiden winner All Good Things, well beaten last time at Cork Orkan has shown some ability in bumpers but will find easier opportunities. Pirolo, however, has much to prove.
