      Verdict

      COUNTRYWIDE FLAME clearly isn't lacking in stamina as he stayed on too strongly for his eight rivals, including Blake Dean and Go, on his hurdling debut at Market Rasen despite pulling hard in the early stages. He can follow up here as Sedgefield winner Market Maker appears held on a line through fifth Arizona High, while Short Takes didn't beat much at Newton Abbot last month and was easily brushed aside in an equally modest heat at Bangor subsequently. Urban Kode has won a couple of sellers on the Flat but was more than 20 lengths behind the selection at Hamilton in June and makes his hurdles bow for a new yard today.
