      Verdict

      Dunlough Bay has yet to show any improvement for his slide down the weights while Hindon Road can race off a lower mark on his return from over two years off the track. Phare Isle was still well beaten when third at Exeter last time and Raktiman has only won a selling hurdle so far. Definitely Better returned an easy winner at Southwell recently but has been raised 14lb for his trouble and Fakenham winner BRASS MONKEY (NAP) makes more appeal off only a 4lb higher mark today.
