Verdict
Allnecessaryforce was well beaten on his debut at Carlisle last month when Mjaal trailed in last. However, BRAVO RAGAZZO dead-heated for third in the second division of the same maiden race beaten only a couple of lengths in the heavy ground. Mark Johnston's colt gets the vote to open his account here as Stagweekend is stepping up from a modest effort over 6f and the newcomer Clouded Vision will benefit for the experience.
