Verdict

It's difficult to be confident about any of these in a really poor race. Eastward Ho posted his first worthwhile form in a claimer at Pontefract last week, but has to prove that was no fluke so a token vote goes to MISTER FROSTY. He wasn't beaten far when fifth at Lingfield on his penultimate start and Kieren Fallon's booking takes the eye. Pursuing ran better in a seller at Redcar last time and Valley Tiger has bits of form that entitle him to consideration.
