The Sportsman's Verdict

MY BROTHER hinted his winning turn was fast approaching when runner-up at Cheltenham three weeks ago and is expected to step up on that effort now eased into 0-120 company. Thistimenextyear was active on the level this year and it would come as no surprise to see him figure on his first handicap start over hurdles, while Malangen looked held when falling at Wincanton recently but has place claims on his earlier efforts over timber.
