In depth

Verdict

Gang Warfare was second over further at Catterick in November but well below par at Fakenham next time. Miss Honey Ryder has slipped to a mark from which she should be competitive and both of her bumper wins came on the track. Caolin Quinn’s claims could further aid her cause but BLACK CENTAUR probably wouldn’t need to improve much on his second at Hereford at the end of last year with the third having franked the form since. Kendelu has already won three times this season and has shown steady improvement throughout so looks a danger.
