      Verdict

      This is tougher than the seller Big Time Maybe won at Lingfield recently while Nine Below Zero has been raised 6lb for winning at Bath. But the latter and Joegogo had earlier finished behind LORD RIDDIFORD (NAP) when John Quinn’s grey won at Windsor last month and he gets the vote to go in again with further progress on the cards. Grandfather Tom wasn’t beaten far at Windsor last week and can figure while Al Asef has plenty of scope and may do better today back on the all-weather for his handicap debut.
