      Verdict

      On The Hoof finally got off the mark at Beverley last time but a 6lb penalty may prevent him from following up and the more progressive ART DZEKO is preferred. He won over 6f on the Fibresand last time but had scored over today's trip at Catterick before that and can continue his winning ways here. Our Boy Jack has yet to race over 7f but looks a real threat on his recent second at Hamilton while Ghost Train has claims on his best form and is dropping down a grade today.
