      Verdict

      Not the strongest of events, and Damiens Pride, should take all the beating. His second in a similar event at Cheltenham reads well enough and he may have most to fear from winning pointer Sea Urchin. Ex-Irish Castlehale, has hardly set the world alight, but he can take the minor honours.
