Verdict
Gavin Sheehan prefers the hurdling newcomer Fortunate Fred to the disappointing Redbridge Gold but he’ll need to be useful to prevent impressive Market Rasen winner MARINE ONE from completing the double. Ask Henry also carries a penalty having won a three-runner race at Musselburgh in February. Graeme McPherson’s charge is not out of this while Chinese Alphabet was just behind a subsequent winner when third at Bangor.
