Red Square Revival is proving a better chaser than hurdler and won at Plumpton and Ludlow late last year, though reappears off a 10lb higher mark. Alf 'n' Dor came good at Ffos Las but that was only a seller and he’s already looking fully exposed. EXMOOR MIST finally took advantage of a tumble down the ratings when scoring at Taunton. Despite a 6lb rise, he’s still on a winning mark and Victor Dartnall’s grey can follow up. Zalgarry has run just three times over fences and is probably on a decent mark but Vendredi Trois and Fear Glic are looking high enough in the weights.
