Verdict

HOMME D'UN SOIR ran a fine race when second at Huntingdon on return, finishing clear of the rest behind a younger rival, and the handicapper hasn't overreacted raising him 3 lb. Lightning Flash and Authoceltic have both improved for the switch to fences this season and are feared most.

  1. HOMME D'UN SOIR (FR)
  2. LIGHTNING FLASH (IRE)
