Verdict

Majestic Mayhem completely lost the plot in the autumn and is best watched here while Bogside also has as many letters as numbers in his recent form figures. Jackson Cage's two wins have come in novice company and he was beaten off a 5lb lower mark at Uttoxeter in January so the vote goes to C&D winner ZEFOOHA. She now races off a career-high mark after winning by six lengths at Doncaster but Brian Toomey takes off 3lb and Tim Walford's mare is clearly at the peak of her powers. Bandanaman was second off this mark at Sedgefield in August but has gone backwards since.
