Verdict

HEIR OF EXCITEMENT (NAP) ran well again in a higher grade at Chester recently having beaten Our Charlie Brown at Carlisle earlier. Kevin Ryan’s charge is taken to confirm superiority in this despite the latter having gone on to win at Musselburgh before upped in class at Ayr last time. Halawain is getting steadily closer off his current mark but Kiribati continues to struggle despite tumbling down the weights and Lady In Question has only won a maiden race so far.
