Verdict

TWO AULD PALS ran another solid race when third at Hexham 22 days ago and remains of interest for a yard operating at a healthy strike rate so far in October. Ashdown Forest may have more to offer for the Skeltons and heads up the opposition, along with Heart Above, who is most reliable at this track.
