Verdict

Memory Hill is best of those with experience of the Fibresand though never threatened when third over a mile here recently. A couple of these stand out on form elsewhere including Chepstow third Gleeful, who is fitted with a visor today and should go close if handling the surface. But she has a couple of pound to find with BOBBY SHAFT, a runner-up at Newcastle at the start of the month on his return from a lay-off. Richard Fahey’s charge should be sharper today and gets the nod. Catterick second Thornaby Spirit was still beaten a long way and Geneva Spur has shown no progress while the newcomer Feel The Thunder is preferred to stablemate Inn With The Gin.
