Verdict
Plenty of these have been thereabouts over 7f recently. Secret Witness was beaten a length at Lingfield last time but had earlier finished ahead of Only Ten Per Cent when third over track and trip. Bridge Builder won over 7f here in January and Pyroclastic was second over the same trip on his penultimate start. Ocean Legend has a shout on his earlier placed effort over today's trip at Lingfield but FOR AYMAN was runner-up over 6f at Chelmsford in a higher grade than this at the start of the year and he may prove good enough off a 3lb lower mark today.
