      Verdict

      I'm To Blame failed to settle when tried over a longer trip at Newcastle last month and forfeited his unbeaten record. Stamina remains a concern and WHITEOAK FLEUR (NAP) is receiving a stone. Donald McCain’s mare made good late headway when third at Kelso on her hurdles bow and she can get off the mark in this. Barnay is improving with experience and preferred to Hexham maiden winner Manamite of the remainder.
