Verdict

Rated 78, Red Force One should be thereabouts at the finish as he steps up in distance though jockey bookings would suggest the latter’s stablemate Zoffalee is preferred. But SNOOKER JIM ran well for fourth over today’s trip at Ascot last time and any improvement on that will see him go very close. Porth Swtan was still beaten six lengths when placed at Doncaster but Paul Hanagan stays loyal while Delph Crescent is preferred to the newcomer Lineofintelligence of Richard Fahey’s duo.
