Verdict

LOOK MY WAY earned a rating of 90 on the Flat after scoring at FFos Las in September. He started favourite on his hurdling debut at Newcastle but found Act Of Valour just too strong but, with that under his belt, he should go one better. Mirzam, a winner over 1m4f at Chepstow for Mick Channon, was well supported for her hurdling debut at Fakenham but weakened quickly from 3 out and was well beaten. Sommervieu was placed three times over timber in France and made his debut for new connections in a Doncaster Grade 2 but was soon struggling. He'll find this less demanding as none of the remainder have shown enough to suggest they could get involved in the finish.
