Verdict

REALISATION firmly dispelled any question marks regarding her stamina over C&D last month and a 6 lb rise for that decisive victory looks manageable. She may have most to fear from Mountain Mike, who bettered his chase debut effort when second at Hereford and is probably capable of better in this sphere. Stratagem is best of the rest.
