While not particularly well drawn, RED SEEKER was slowly away when successful at Doncaster two weeks ago so it may not be much of a disadvantage if Danny Redmond can keep his cool. Chester winner Sezim couldn’t follow up at Salisbury but the Newmarket raider shouldn’t be written off just yet. Twin Appeal goes really well here and is respected but Northernpowerhouse has yet to prove he handles going this soft. The ground would also be a concern for Ollivander.
