Verdict

Next Second bids for a hat-trick of course and distance wins though is upped in class and raised 6lb. BANG ON THE BELL was winning for the third time in only five starts at the track on his latest start and looks worth sticking with though Iur Cinn Tra returns to the all-weather with the in-form Mark Winn’s allowance in his favour while Obtain has his second outing after wind surgery and drops down in trip. Kim Wexler placed at Southwell recently and looks best of the rest.
