Verdict

Cairn Gorm made a winning start at Windsor and is penalised as a consequence. He should still confirm running with Marsabit but a couple of these took their chance at Ascot last time. Nelson Gay struggled in the Norfolk having placed at Yarmouth earlier while ASTIMEGOESBY was well beaten in the Windsor Castle. But the latter had finished a close-up third at Newmarket before that and gets the vote back at this level. Richard Hannon has won the last two renewals and runs Four Clubs with Maker Of Light, Twilight Calls and Peerless other newcomers to note.
