Verdict
Those who saw SPIORAD (NAP) forge clear at Redcar last Saturday will want to oppose David O’Meara’s charge here under a penalty. The four-year-old just gets into this handicap having been originally rated 79 and a step up in class is on the cards in the near future. Saisons D'Or wouldn’t want any rain and finished behind Al Erayg at Beverley last month but the latter has been beaten twice since. Alfa McGuire gets cheekpieces despite scoring at Ayr when dropping back down in trip but another recent Ayr winner, Start Time, should go well as he’s won his last two here and has a good overall record on that track. Zip is back on a winning mark but Donnelly's Rainbow steps up in class again, though will handle the ground.
