Verdict
MR BACHSTER is upped a further 7lb after landing a double when successful at Leicester. But he was rated much higher over hurdles and is perfectly at home on fast ground so gets the verdict. That's The Deal has won off higher marks here but will need to step up on his latest third over track and trip when beaten eight lengths. He had Carpincho behind on that occasion. Daliance blundered his way round Stratford on his chasing debut and will need to sort out his jumping to figure but Molko Jack is back on a winning mark if putting a recent string of poor efforts behind him.
