Verdict

Unlimited got the better of the odds-on Orpenindeed here last month, but the former's poor efforts since suggest the latter ran nowhere near his mark. Better is expected from Frank Sheridan's charge here, but he also runs The Big Hearth and he looks to have a good chance judged on his latest third to Army Of Stars. However, the vote goes to CHIMPUNK, who made a winning return to action in a maiden at Lingfield with a subsequent winner back in third and further progress is expected on only his fourth start.
