Verdict

VAL DE LAW, a winning bumper and hurdler in France, was upsides Grade 2 winner Southfield Theatre on his fencing bow at Exeter when over-jumping at the last. He may well have won had he stayed on his feet and should gain compensation here before going on to better things. Cash And Go won a Grade 1 over hurdles in Ireland in his younger days but also failed to complete on his chasing debut at Plumpton. He probably has a bit to learn about jumping fences, though still looks in a different league to Bin End and Soupcon D'Albain.
