Verdict
HAY MAX shaped like a ready-made future winner when runner-up on debut at Bangor during the spring and he is taken to go one better here, perhaps at the chief expense of point recruit Ballyeaston. Creeping Tom is in good hands, but it's likely that he will be seen in a better light when faced with a stiffer test further down the line.
