Verdict
Zapper Cass won in soft going over 6f at Nottingham last week and Harry Beau scored over the same trip at Chepstow last month. Fintech went close over a mile here last time while Gulland Rock finished in front of Limerick Lord when successful over today’s trip at Yarmouth. But NUTINI (NAP) makes most appeal in this having won a higher grade contest over course and distance on his latest start - Malcom Saunders’ charge can go in again raised only 3lb
