In depth

Verdict

This looks a weak affair and few will want to oppose COLLOONEY, who had the proverbial ton in hand when scoring at Bangor having run the useful Brandon Castle to half-a-length at Plumpton on his hurdling debut. Not So Sleepy won four times on the Flat but was too keen on his hurdles bow at Kempton and faded up the home straight. If he learns to settle, he should win races over timber. Point Taken has shown little so far but Just Go For It has a nice pedigree for jumping and could be worth a market check.
