Verdict

Spencer Moon has been flying between the flags but his record under Rules is much less impressive. Honourable Exit was well beaten behind Mountain Cliche, who runs earlier on the card, at Exeter but Letskeepit Simple could go well on his hunter chase debut and a case can also be made for CREATIVE INERTA. Though flattered by his proximity to Athreeothree last time at Stafford Cross, the pair pulled a long way clear of the remainder and Ben Clarke’s seven-year-old is clearly not short of pace.
