        Verdict

        An open-looking finale on paper but it was hard not be impressed by the manner of BEDOUIN’S STORY’s victory at Salisbury given he actually missed the break. The opposition may not have been strong but he starts off in handicaps off a mark of 75, which looks lenient. Beat The Judge wasn’t beaten far at Windsor but that form looks weak having been run in a very slow time. Fleeting Freedom is 0-11 but has been placed six times and Deadly Accurate and Keepup Kevin are others with each-way claims. Noble Star continues to slip down the weights and he makes more appeal than surprise Carlisle winner Amood.
