Verdict

There is almost certainly more to come from PATSYS CASTLE, who made the most of an easy opportunity at Worcester on his reappearance. He was highly tried last season and can get the better of Gordon Elliott's pair I C Gold and Pumped Up Kicks. The former won't be fazed by the step up in trip having scored over 2m4f here earlier in the month but the latter was due to run here yesterday. Ex-pointer Little James looks a chaser in the making while Mo Rouge needs to improve on his latest third here to get involved.
