Verdict
Seinesational has placed in four of six starts so far over timber and was a useful stayer on the Flat. Indianapolis also had decent form on the level but hasn’t won for a long time. A fair sort in bumpers, FAME AND CONCRETE is a half-brother to three winning jumpers and all of them stayed well. Grave La Klass, Thomas Mor and Getupearly are all interesting recruits from the point-to-point circuit and Golden Cosmos ran well on a couple of occasions when trained in Ireland. Powder Trick is also worth a market check.
