        In depth

        Verdict

        Paramaribo is 0-11 but placed over hurdles here in February. Ask Peter is a consistent sort but FORGETMENOTBLUE is rarely beaten far and could finally get his head in front today at the 16th time of asking ahead of the returning Aighear. Zephlyn finished ahead of the selection at Newcastle in March but was then behind Paramaribo and Tiger Spirit at Redcar.
