Verdict
A pretty desperate affair in which Rita Speak must have some sort of chance dropping into a seller for the first time and sporting blinkers. COVERHOLDER also tackles selling company for the first time and was a strong favourite at Folkestone earlier this month. Lightly-raced, he must win this off a low weight if he is to have any kind of future. Samantha Drake has won on Marino Prince before but he fell at Market Rasen on Boxing Day and appears to have lost his way while Terenzium isn't the force of old either. Quite Sparky has been showing a bit more lately and looks best of the rest.
