Form & Verdict

Eighteen race maiden under rules is 0-9 in chases; best chase efforts have come over this C&D on decent ground; now 3lb lower than when beaten 3.25l here last July; third of 11 here on latest, beaten 10.5l on good to yielding (2.5l behind Da Big Fella); should be thereabouts in first-time cheekpieces.
