Big Narstie finally took advantage of a slide down the weights when scoring over 7f here but End Zone came up short when sent off favourite at Newcastle and finishing behind third-placed Barney's Bay. Beautiful Crown’s earlier wins came over 1m2f so Rumnotred is preferred but a chance is taken on SOUTHWOLD. The Newcastle winner failed to cope under a penalty here last time but still finished in front of subsequent winners and there looks more to come now handicapping.
