Verdict
CATCH CUNNING HAM quickly shaped as if back in form that despite not being seen to best effect in a higher grade at Musselburgh 4 weeks ago and, with the likelihood of a strong pace to aim at, he could well be worth chancing from a workable mark. Bang On The Bell rates a big danger having been nudged up 4 lb for his recent Windsor success, with fellow last-time-out winners Outer Edge and Protest Rally others to consider in the finale.
