Verdict

OPERATION MANNA has made a bright start to his career, making a winning debut in a Wincanton bumper before shaping with promise sent hurdling at Sandown last time following 6 months off. He can step up on that effort to go one better. Mister Marbles is feared most on his second start since a wind op, while Huflower was sent off as favourite when last seen and could bounce back in a tongue strap.
