        Verdict

        Richard Hannon and Tom Marquand combined to win this last year and any strong support for STRAIGHT ASH could prove significant. He’s entered in valuable sales races later in the year along with both Jedi Master and Kick On Kick On. The later pair are both related to winners while Zain Flash is preferred of the David Evans duo and Bunch Of Thyme is another to note with an apprentice taking 5lb off his back.
