Verdict
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER won a seller at Wolverhampton on Monday and with a 7lb claimer negating a penalty, he should have enough to take care of the higher rated Miami Gator and go in again. The latter remains out of form and was well beaten at this level at the end of the Turf season while Barachiel has a bit to find with the selection at the weights and Roe Valley has even more to do on today's terms. Spinning Ridge was in fine form at this time last year but finished last on his recent return from a layoff.
