Verdict

Lord Apparelli ran well in a couple of bumpers but weakened badly in the closing stages on his hurdling bow while Rainbow Storm never threatened on his first outing over timber. It remains to be seen if HURRICANE MITCH fares any better having placed in a bumper at Wincanton but his half-brother won three times over hurdles for Harry Fry’s yard and he gets the vote. Presentedwithwings is another hurdling for the first time along with point-to-point winner Magnificent Ben while Freddie Flip Flop and Geordie Washington are newcomers to note.
