        Verdict

        A useful Hunter chaser at best, Rocket Radar looks the one to beat. His defeat of Carbonado, who is 7lb better off, and Mr Dow Jones, reads well enough, and he is taken to beat Vague Idea, who was fortunate to win at Hereford last time, but it was still a solid performance, with Fanfaron just behind. Point winners Bardon Boy, General Typhoon and Torus Star, should not be good enough to trouble the principals.
