      Verdict

      RED EXPLORER showed he was going the right way when scoring by three lengths at Warwick last week. There looks more to come and Charlie Hills' charge is taken to shrug off an 8lb rise and go in again. Red Refraction is finding it harder to get his head in front and recent Bath maiden winner Trinityelitedotcom makes more appeal. Multiple Polytrack winner Sylvia Pankhurst went close at Catterick during the week and is preferred to Clearing, who landed a low grade handicap on the all-weather last time.
