    Verdict

    Zafraaj hasn't been done any favours by the handicapper here giving weight to Leicester runner-up Narborough and DREAM SIKA. Mick Channon's charge is pretty much exposed now so preference is for the latter, who might be capable of further improvement despite being beaten six lengths when second at Sandown. Richard Hughes takes over the reins now. The others are a very modest bunch and will do well to get involved.
