In depth

Verdict

Beat The Judge made a winning debut at Kempton but collateral form suggests he doesn’t have much in hand over Vlannon, who is receiving 4lb. Marc Goldstein rode the latter last time but now switches to newcomer Kenny George. Belargus is 10lb better with Beat The Judge than when sixth at Kempton but he’s proving disappointing. ZAFAR was let down by a lack of experience at Taunton but will know more today and Philip Hobbs’ French import is fancied to go one better getting 6lb from previous winners Poucor and Fresno Emery.
