Verdict

Zulu Zander beat Dazzling Des less than a length at Wolverhampton and the latter re-opposes on better terms while Capla Spirit won a lower grade sprint here last time under today’s apprentice. Saaheq finished ahead of Shamshon when finishing a close-up fourth over track and trip but RAASEL has the more scope. He went close in novice company and on his debut for Mick Appleby and first outing since 2019 and a bold bid is expected now handicapping.
