Verdict

The Dartnall stable has had a quiet season but had a winner at Taunton on Thursday and HELUVAGOOD won a better race than this by 10 lengths last month. Despite a 9lb hike in the weights, he should follow up today. Three Colours Red is an interesting runner as he’s had a couple of runs on the all-weather and won over hurdles at Worcester last summer. C'Est Du Gateau scored at Towcester last month and remains unexposed and Pray For A Rainbow was also successful on his latest start at Lingfield. Lizzie Langton was clear of the remainder when runner-up to Ramore Will at Plumpton and the winner was an easy victor again last week at Kempton.
