Verdict
A winner here last month, POKER MASTER (NAP) was just as impressive at Ludlow nine days later. He’s gone up another 8lb but Tom Buckley can utilise his 5lb claim today and Philip McBride’s improver can complete the hat-trick. A switch to handicaps should suit Sword Beach with a similar comment applying to Torbellino. Systemic may well have placed at Plumpton had he not fallen at the last but he needs to settle better.
