Verdict

Eagle Eyed Freddie landed a double on the all-weather before beaten over track and trip while Red Kite placed at Pontefract earlier with Arranmore behind. Yoshimi is proving best over 7f and won over the latter distance at Leicester recently but MOTARAJEL is preferred. Tim Easterby’s charge put a below par effort behind him when third at Carlisle and won off a similar mark over course and distance last month.
