Verdict

Paymaster sets a fair standard here after a sound first effort at Huntingdon. He had just joined issue when getting the last all wrong and was not knocked around when his chance had gone. Fair hurdler Air Attache, who has been off for the best part of two years, may need this, the vote goes to Maragun, who was the best of these over hurdles and he is taken to score at the expense of Karadin, who will find this easier than when chasing Golden Alpha around Newton Abbot.
