        Verdict

        NOBLE SCHOLAR seems as good a place to start as any in this contest and is put forwards ahead of Not So Sure Dick and Big Sam. Alan Swinbank is well known for his exploits in bumpers and he may yet to be able to get a win out of Noble Scholar who has failed to cut the mustard so far. However, he's entitled to learn with experience and may fare better now encountering quicker ground with a tongue tie on. It will be interesting to see if there's any support for Not So Sure Dick who is the sole runner at the track for his Warwickshire based trainer. He's a winner between the flags in Ireland so clearly has some ability and is one to be interested in. Big Sam is one of several that may be able to step up on debut form whilst Harsh But Fair is a Flat bred newcomer to be interested in but Noble Scholar may be able to pass this test. (Ian Ogg)
