Verdict
Richard Fahey’s yard bids to win this for the third time in succession and looks to have every chance of doing so with RAMAZAN. The Haydock winner failed to cope upped in class at York last time though still finished in front of both Braveheart Boy and Shandy Star. The latter had earlier beaten Jm Jungle when scoring at Hamilton while Don't Fight It won a lowly Class 6 sprint at Carlisle last time. Reward Smile and Premier Option are worth keeping an eye on making their handicap debuts.
