Verdict

This may turn out to be a decent bumper with several powerful stables having runners. Flash The Steel won a maiden point last October and was just beaten on his first run for Dan Skelton over course and distance last month - he will be fancied to go one better. Rebound was second when favourite on his debut at Fontwell last March while Philip Hobbs’ newcomer Melekhov is a half-brother to a winning hurdler. Laughing Luis showed some promise at Towcester but his yard also run LIGNY, who attracted market support at Newbury last season. He looked in need of the experience that day and is probably capable of much better being a half-brother to useful bumper, hurdles and chase winner Lidar and also a winner on the Flat in France.
