Verdict

None of these inspire much confidence but GIFT OF RAIN gets the vote on her second at Yarmouth in October, despite disappointing at Kempton subsequently. Arabian Comet also ended last season with a poor effort at Newcastle while Goleador was tailed off on his latest start at Nottingham having made the frame here in February. Aran Sky showed some promise on his debut at Redcar but has gone backwards since.
