In depth
Verdict
ALA KAIFI is still a maiden after three starts but couldn't have gone any closer at Doncaster and an opening mark of 70 can be exploited. I Still Have Faith had been threatening to win before getting off the mark at this level at Nottingham for which he's only been raised 2lb. Kodiman has spent most of his time on the all-weather and never really looked like winning while Moush appeared to find this trip on the short side at Haydock.
