Verdict
Lexington Bay was a decent handicapper on the Flat and was sent off favourite on his hurdles bow at Doncaster. However, his jumping left much to be desired and he only beat one home. He's best watched here and the one to beat is LORD WISHES, who couldn't quite match the speed of Woodpole Academy at Newcastle but should go one better in this as Maybe I Wont has had plenty of chances and Broctune Papa Gio will have to be held up to stay the trip over hurdles.
