In depth
Verdict
Our Armageddon is a lightly raced and progressive performer who can follow up a recent novice victory over this trip at Newcastle. Norman Mason's charge was confirming his debut promise when handing out a defeat of the useful Tees Components at Gosforth Park with the pair well clear of the third and looks capable of scoring off his present mark. Shemdani is the likely market leader but was beaten on his handicap debut over nine months ago and is now 5lb higher so offers no value at prohibitive odds. Needwood Spirit is a useful sort at this level and should go well following a good effort last time while Mixsterthetrixster has had his problems but still retains plenty of ability judged on recent evidence and can reach a place.
