Verdict

WINDSPIEL was a convincing scorer at Towcester after showing notable promise on his chasing debut at Warwick behind Hargam. He has a 7lb penalty to contend with but is clearly going the right way over fences and enjoys the forecast good ground. Overtoujay shaped nicely on chasing debut at Southwell and should prove competitive alongside point-to-point winner League Of His Own, who may well emerge as the prime threat despite being 5lb out of the weights. He debuts for this yard and is of interest with the champion jockey booked for the ride. He could prove extremely well treated. Key To The West and Teeescomponents Max are next best.
