Verdict

WALK IN THE MILL made a successful start for new connections when scoring at Lingfield last month. Already a winner in France, he can go in again with further progress expected. Murrayana was still beaten a long way when placed at Warwick recently and Allez Vic is preferred on an earlier second over fences at Kempton. Elenika was still thereabouts but tiring when falling at the last over these fences three weeks ago and The Sneezer was beaten a distance on his reappearance at Wincanton.
