Verdict

MULTICULTURE gained his only victory on the Flat on heavy ground and has had those conditions for his two successes over hurdles. He made all for a facile victory in a moderate contest at Wincanton a couple of weeks ago and has been found an equally poor event to continue his sequence. Argus won three times on the Flat but hasn't shown much over hurdles while Jupiter's Gift, who showed a bit of potential in bumpers, was beaten a very long way over timber at Wincanton three weeks ago. The remainder have all been well beaten and may struggle to reach a place.
