Verdict

Cottage Flyer, a winner between the flags last month and of an incident-packed beginners' event at Fakenham over fences five days later, was due to run in the 3.10 at Hereford yesterday but whatever happens there he faces a stiff task against FAHRISEE. Evan Williams' charge didn't please everyone when beating just three rivals including Thumbs Up at Ffos Las but this won't take much winning and he can go in again. Courella is doubly penalised and was tailed off on his comeback at Leicester three weeks ago.
