Verdict

No Ceiling made a winning start over fences at Sedgefield but this is much more competitive and he's been raised 9lb since. Wells De Lune, a useful hurdler, has also only run once over fences but he was well beaten at Uttoxeter in April and hasn't been seen since. A LITTLE MAGIC makes his chasing bow but looks the type likely to surpass what he achieved over hurdles now that there is more emphasis on jumping. He gets a tentative vote with Beatu looking held by Jarlath on the form book and neither Vexillum nor Grams And Ounces making much appeal at the weights.
