In depth
Verdict
Focail Eile stood no chance in a conditions race at Nottingham during the week and can finish closer in this company, while Tewin Wood is also better than his latest start at the same track suggests. Jungle Bay went close under today's apprentice at Yarmouth last time and Amy Ryan was on board Sam Nombulist when he finished second at Catterick recently. However, ZAFEEN'S PEARL looks to have every chance of landing her hat-trick after a couple of cosy wins on the Polytrack. Her apprentice's claim allows her to race off a 1lb lower mark than when successful at Wolverhampton last week and Dean Ivory's filly can take advantage.
