Verdict
RYEDALE RACER gets a chance to make amends after failing to land the odds over track and trip last time. Malcolm Jefferson's charge had gone close at Hexham earlier and a repeat effort would be good enough in this. Silver Shuffle is usually thereabouts but has yet to win over hurdles in 34 attempts and had an alternative engagement this weekend so the lightly-raced Rolling Thunder makes more appeal on his recent third at Musselburgh. Rock On Bollinski has won a couple of low grade handicaps on the Flat but makes his hurdling debut today.
