Verdict

MAX THE MINISTER looked a sure-fire future winner when just failing to match the pace of King's Tempest at Warwick on his debut. He may have most to feat from Taunton scorer Rhythm Star as Bjornlucky was all out to win at Wincanton in November and the form of that race hasn't worked out. Golan Silk is well worth a market check as he's nicely bred and his yard usually have their bumper horses primed for action. Two Jabs was in good form over the trip in the autumn and should also be prominent if ready after a break.
