Verdict
Yet another trappy heat that sets punters a real poser. Gospel Song returned to form a couple of outings ago but was found out by his penalty last time. Frazer's Lad also comes into the reckoning after his bold display here last time. But the step back in trip and the booking of Richard Johnson are just enough to swing the balance in the favour of Silver Howe, who is nothing but game and deserves to have more 1's next to his name.
