Verdict

DAVID CRICKET is a brother to the very useful Red Sherlock, who was unbeaten in bumpers and also won at a decent level over hurdles. It was no surprise that he started favourite on his racecourse debut at Warwick in May and he can go one better on his reappearance. Everybodys Happy also only found one too on his introduction at Plumpton while Markov was second twice between the flags and should find a race under Rules. Newcomers Tigers Eye and Good News will probably need to be useful to play a part.
