Verdict

FIN AND GAME (NAP) made a very promising reappearance over a longer trip here four weeks ago and would only need to run up to that form to take this for Donald McCain and Lorcan Murtagh. Chaser Top Gamble may be having a confidence-booster while Minella Charmer usually needs a run or two but Bang On didn’t give his true running at Taunton last time so looks the danger with Notwhatiam having limitations exposed recently.
