In depth

Verdict

Rock Of America made a winning start when landing a maiden at Newcastle but the handicapper has taken no chances allotting him a mark of 80. Foxy Forever was ahead of Zipedeedodah when scoring at Wolverhampton a week ago and Secret Asset fell victim to Malaysian Boleh when the latter landed a double with last week’s course and distance success. But SEAMSTER (NAP) has been showing signs of a return to form with a couple of recent placed efforts having won six times last year and David Loughnane’s sprinter gets the vote to come good again.
