Verdict

Solway Blue won for the first time in 27 starts when scoring at Market Rasen a fortnight ago but is not certain to confirm running with Hi Ho Silvia or Muntami who filled the places. A STONES THROW has been running well without winning and finished fourth at Kelso last time. Back down in grade today, Ben Haslam's charge is taken to open his account. Baraathen went close at Sedgefield last time and has every chance, while Daraybad has outside claims and could prove best of the rest.
