      Verdict

      A Little Bit Dusty bounced back to winning ways in a seller at Ludlow and should confirm that running with the disappointing Bathwick Scanno. This isn't much better and Tom O'Connor's claim reduces his weight by 5lb so he makes more appeal than Wincanton second Freedom Flyer, who isn't improving. REGGIE PERRIN makes his hurdles bow but showed ability up to 1m4f on the Flat, most significantly when just touched off twice on the Polytrack in August. He wouldn't need to be a world-beater to score here.
