    Verdict

    Xtara is penalised for making all at Carlisle where he still looked green in the closing stages. He will improve again and take some pegging back though ZEBZARDEE looks up to the task. Richard Fahey's colt showed the benefit of a nice introduction at Beverley when chasing home a couple of useful types at Redcar and the 6lb he receives can swing things his way. The stable also run Aurag, who made a promising start over 5f at Doncaster but didn't run as well over this trip at Ripon. Carlow Boy finished a long way last on his debut at Carlisle but the filly For Heaven's Sake is worth a market check.
