Verdict

CENTRAL HALL fail to land the odds at Newcastle when fading in the final furlong. A tongue-tie is applied for this and he looks worth chancing over this shorter trip. Rumnotred placed at Southwell last time and is preferred to the returning Kingdom Come, who missed the whole of last year. Endued and Zoffany Portrait may prove best of the rest with the latter debuting for a new yard.
