Verdict
Exalted Leader isn’t certain to stay this trip but this isn’t a great race. Love Of Zoffany is a rare runner in this grade for his yard but SIM CARD is the form pick on his second at Yarmouth in April having raced on the all-weather subsequently. Volkova has already been beaten in a seller at Redcar.
