Verdict

Massini's Dream was second at Kempton last month but then ran out at the first at Newton Abbot - Richard Johnson keeps faith with Christian Williams’ mare, however. The result of the previous race should be monitored as Balli Martine was just behind Ezanak at Southwell and Flat winner Master Ring was fifth to Aardwolf at Stratford. Josepth Tuite may have found the key to BLACK KALANISI as he never looked any danger in a bumper here at the start of the month. He has a nice pedigree for jumping so can make a winning start over timber.
