Verdict

Frizzo made a promising debut when fifth at Ayr last month and that form looks slightly superior to Gilzean's improved effort at Chepstow and Shufflewing's fourth at Windsor. FLAT CAP THURSDAY also left a good impression when beaten only five lengths at Cheltenham on her racecourse debut and that run earns Murty McGrath's filly the vote here. Winning pointer Ballygarvey makes his debut but fellow newcomer Bennys Well makes more appeal with Tony McCoy on board.
