Verdict

Nodform Richard is from an excellent jumping family and his opening success in a Kelso bumper in March must have been a bonus for connections. He receives 7lb from the two hurdles winners and could well be a very useful recruit. Hazy Tom kept his unbeaten record with a battling success on his hurdling debut at Aintree last month. A dual bumper winner, he has plenty of scope and will be very difficult to beat but SEA OF THUNDER may have his measure. Charles Byrnes' charge, twice a winner between the flags, has been making steady progress over hurdles and there was plenty to like about his comfortable success when well backed at Thurles last month.
