Verdict

Irish bumper winner Westendorf had every chance when falling two out on his hurdling debut at Ffos Las and will be bidding for compensation. Saint Cajetan has been getting closer and should be thereabouts again but ONE FORTY SEVEN, first past the post at Uttoxeter last month, makes a significantly quick reappearance after flopping at Haydock nine days ago and we expect a much-improved performance. The market should tell us all we need to know about the others.
