In depth

Verdict

Company Coming has been a bit in and out though did nothing wrong when runner-up to Dandridge at Tramore. The Mooch was in good form in the spring but has since disappointed and Notimetoserve hasn't been seen since June of last year when beaten a distance. FIVE O'CLOCK TEA has been an expensive failure since scoring at Perth in April and a couple of bad errors have cost him winning opportunities. This isn't the strongest of handicaps and he looks set to recoup losses. Winning point-to-pointer Bendala Bleu has finished runner-up three times over fences and probably needs further.
