Verdict

Hipz is now back on a winning mark but has done all his winning so far over shorter distances. The same comment applies to Malaysian Boleh, who won over 7f here last week with Mr Potter back in third. A winner at Dundalk in December, No Approval has struggled off higher marks since but THE KING’S STEED finally opened his account on the all-weather with a bit to spare at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago and Shaun Lycett’s charge can make another bold bid raised only 2lb.
