Verdict

A spell hunting may have transformed CAPTAIN BUCK’S (NAP) as he finally came good over fences on his reappearance at Stratford, where he showed battling qualities. He’s been raised 7lb but is still fairly treated on past form. No Hidden Charges found only one too good at Market Rasen on his chasing bow and should have more to offer. Seddon was well backed at Stratford last month and is capable of better while Paseo won on soft going over hurdles last season and makes more appeal than the returning Shantaluze.
