Verdict

Preference is for THE FLYING POET who made a successful chasing debut here in May, before bumping into a well-treated type at Worcester on his latest outing. With more still to offer over fences, he gets the vote ahead of the hat-trick seeking Get A Superstar, while Thehairyfella could be in the mix in a change of headgear.
