Verdict

Zama Zama has the best form in this but has been hugely frustrating and will probably find a way of getting beat again. Soft ground suits veteran BALL HOPPER and he's 4lb lower than his only winning mark. Richandra Ford's 11-year-old gets a tentative vote, though recent Fakenham winner Lord Fox should go well again and Lamb's Cross survived several jumping errors to win comfortably at Newton Abbot last week. Accordingtopalm was third over 3m here last time and is another to consider but Ravens Brook has a bit to prove at present.
