      Verdict

      Ya Hafed hasn't managed a win here in four previous tries and reserves his best for Plumpton. He's also climbing the weights so may not offer much in the way of value. Lady From Geneva and Red Anchor are the only course winners in the line-up but neither sparkled last time and Expanding Universe was a spent form when falling at Lingfield at the start of the week. CALL THE DETECTIVE has had a stop-start career to date under Rules but is still only six and has won a point-to-point. He'll strip fitter for a pipe-opener at Huntingdon and could be worth a small interest in this, despite top weight.
