      Verdict

      Steel Wave won at Stratford two runs ago but is not easy to predict and has a lot to find with San Agustin on subsequent Market Rasen running. Clondaw Pretender ran his best race so far over fences at Newcastle last month but GUILLEMOT is preferred. A close second over hurdles at Chepstow last month, he’s not highly tried on his chasing bow.
