A winner at Dundalk, No Approval struggled off today’s higher mark at Lingfield last week on his first start for new connections and Bo Selecta never figured under a penalty just four days ago having won at Lingfield earlier. Shamlan went close over a mile at Wolverhampton in between his more usual poor efforts so the vote goes to VIOLA PARK given he’s gone close the last twice now off similar marks including a second over course and distance.
