Verdict
Flinteur Sacre clearly has ability but has not been seen since running a shocker at Uttoxeter last May and Sainte Doctor is having a first outing since failing to land the odds at Newton Abbot in June. GREATEST STAR didn’t beat much at Southwell in November but is unexposed compared to most of these and Fairyhouse winner Petrol Head has been racing over further in Ireland. Punctuation was rated 89 on the Flat at one time and races off 95 on his second run in a handicap over hurdles. He is thrown in at the weights if Fergal O’Brien can get him to put his best hoof forward.
