Verdict

Winning pointer A Plein Temps is probably better than he showed on his debut under Rules at Warwick and he makes more appeal than Sweettoothtommy, another recruit from the point-to-point ranks. You Say What has also won between the flags but rather went backwards in bumpers after making a promising start at Ffos Las in October. Yet another winning pointer, Highway Storm, disappointed in a bumper at Bangor last month and also has something to prove so we'll give another chance to ACCORDING TO HARRY. He was staying on when falling two out at Taunton last week having finished third over a shorter trip here previously.
