Verdict

Manor Park has won three times over hurdles this summer and beat Nicks Not Wonder more than three lengths here last month, though the runner-up is now 8lb better off. REAMS OF LOVE finally got his head in front here 10 days ago. He’s gone up 4lb but is still on a lower mark than when runner-up to the smart Wink Of An Eye at Haydock in June and can cap a successful day for the Johnston team even though Red Flyer is only 3lb higher than when scoring at Windsor.
