Verdict

If VIRTUAL HUG takes his chance he will prove a tough nut to crack following his cosy success in an apprentices' handicap here on Tuesday, for which he escapes a penalty.The 6-y-o was beaten 2 lengths by Black Smoke over C&D on his penultimate start but now meets that rival on 4 lb better terms. Black Smoke is respected nonetheless, while Socialist Agenda is also shortlisted and Calshot Spit makes some each-way appeal.

  3. SOCIALIST AGENDA
