Verdict
High Noon is a half-brother to three winning jumpers and ran well in what looked a decent maiden bumper at Stratford in March when finishing ahead of Out Of Style. He could be one to follow over timber this winter but BALLYGOWN BAY may hold a fitness advantage today. Philip Hobbs' runner has yet to finish out of the frame and would have finished closer here two weeks ago had he not made mistakes at crucial times. Captain Cattistock and Canelo are recruits from the point-to-point circuit worthy of a market check.
