Verdict

INK BLACK HEART has shown plenty in a couple of bumpers, finding only a subsequent listed winner too good when starting out for Dan Skelton at Wetherby. He can get the job done this time. The money was down for Fine Tuning at Wincanton and he can build on that promising start, while point winner Eastern Rock and River Kwai are interesting runners on their first go in this sphere.
