Verdict
Vocaliser wasn’t beaten far at Bangor last month and slips further down the ratings with Lewis Stones claiming a further 6lb. Cage Of Fear hasn’t really been threatening but his last win came off a 13lb lower mark. Bill And Barn was only second of three at Hereford so this can go to ZUCKERBERG (NAP), who placed off a 5lb higher mark here in May and is overdue another win.
