Verdict

FORTY THIRTY took advantage of a big drop in class to score easily over C&D on Sunday. Sheena West's gelding is much better than stablemate Reaction and fancied to record a quick double with likely market rival Saute having his first run since disappointing over fences at Uttoxeter in May. Dark Oasis and Henry The First have some ability but appear to have plenty to find at the weights here.
