      Verdict

      The veteran It Must Be Faith finished runner-up in a higher grade at Nottingham last time while Red Stripes posted a better effort over track and trip last week. Several drop back down in distance including Stronsay, who is penalised for winning over 6f at Catterick two days ago, while Enchanted Night has placed off similar marks recently. HOWZAK (NAP) finished third attempting to make all over 6f here on his handicap debut and this first attempt at the minimum trip should suit Robyn Brisland’s charge.
