Verdict

The only defeat for EL NAMOOSE in four bumpers starts came in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham and though not bred for jumping that's rarely a problem for one of John Ferguson's and he's been found what looks a winning opportunity on his hurdling debut. Handsome Horace is expected to do much better than he's shown to date while Minstrels Gallery did well to chase home Kiama Bay at Fakenham on only his second run over timber. Regulation is rated 32lb higher than the latter on the Flat and ran well enough on his hurdling bow at Stratford to suggest he'll soon be adding to his three victories. Song And Dance Man has a superb pedigree for the Flat and though he didn't live up to expectations he's with the right team to get the best out of him. Ogaritmo was a 33/1 chance for a Stratford seller last month but defied her odds with a better than expected show though she's raised in class here.
