Verdict

It could pay to stick with CLIFF BAY in a weak handicap on the back of winning at Carlisle recently when narrowly beating Donnelly's Rainbow. King Of Naples won over a longer trip at Wolverhampton earlier in the year but Robben Rainbow is preferred having scored over 7f here in May with an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause today. Clary went close at Ayr on her penultimate start while the Irish raider Lappet has slipped down the weights having placed off higher marks in the past.
