Verdict
Zefooha has won twice over 1m6f on the Flat at Redcar this year but reserves her best for that galloping track and has still to make the frame over timber. Spot The Ball showed promise earlier in his career and could figure in what looks a weak finale, while Rebel Flag's Market Rasen third wasn't a bad run in the context of this race. SOLWAY DORNAL was second over fences at Sedgefield last time and had only found one too good over hurdles at Cartmel two runs earlier when Seam Of Diamonds was behind. He could finally open his account here, though stakes should probably be kept to a minimum.
