Verdict

TORNADO WATCH couldn’t land the gamble at Cartmel 10 days ago but looks well treated at present and compensation probably awaits here with a similar effort. Border Breaker looks thoroughly exposed but a market move for the returning Champagne Chaser would be interesting and Richard Johnson has been booked. Flying Jack just held on in lesser company here last month, however, and Minella Rebellion has disappointed under Rules so far.
