CAPTAIN REVELATION is unproven in soft going but an earlier short-head defeat on the Fibresand suggests it will be no problem. He scored at Pontefract on his latest start and can follow up. Mighty Warrior and Classic Flyer won their respective divisions of the same handicap at Newcastle last month but the latter has been beaten since and Westhoughton is preferred on his placed effort in soft ground at Carlisle in August. The front-running Explain drops back in trip and makes most appeal of the handicap debutants.
