      Verdict

      Seaweed finally opened his account over hurdles when successful at Plumpton but steps up in trip under a penalty. Cassivellaunus is back on a winning mark and finished closer at Fakenham last time but Glimpse Of Gold still finished a long way behind the winner when third at Sedgefield. Downloadtheapp ran well here before failing to complete when sent off favourite at Huntingdon and HIER ENCORE also returned a losing favourite here earlier in the month. But the latter looked unlucky when falling having been hampered at the first hurdle and gets another chance on his earlier placed efforts at the track.
