In depth

Verdict

It was only a claimer FLIGHT OF THUNDER finished runner-up in at Catterick but the winner is rated 65 and Kevin Ryan’s charge has every chance in this handicapping for the first time. He can confirm running with Two Hearts and Comeatchoo and also has the beating of Queens Blade on collateral form. Too Hard To Hold was placed at Bath last week and can figure on his handicap debut with Chocoholic and Lara Silvia others expected to improve having both placed in novice company.
