Verdict

PANKO (NAP) won five times on the Flat between 1m2f and 1m4f and is going to make a decent hurdler judged on his debut second at Stratford. He’s getting 7lb from Uttoxeter maiden winner Ilewin Geez, who failed to cope with a penalty at Worcester. High Command was best on the all-weather on the Flat but still makes more appeal than fellow newcomers Epsom Secret and Noble Attitude. Lord Condi won a bumper at Fontwell in May but never threatened at that track on his hurdles bow.
