Verdict

This looks on the short side for staying chaser Set List but he can’t be ignored in this small field. Whitley Neill won an Exeter maiden in April but was only fourth under a penalty at Worcester the following month and has had wind surgery since. SEROSEVSKY also won at Exeter in the spring and followed that up with a close second at Warwick when giving an odds-on favourite 6lb Aine O’Connor’s claim here will help his cause and can return to action with another victory.
