Verdict
This could be a big chance for rising conditional Finn Lambert having his first ride for Ben Pauling as the trainer looks to lighten some of the welter-burden carried by Dock Road. Robeam got an uncontested lead at Southwell and made the rest pay for their folly but RELEASE THE KRAKEN stays this trip well and has been threatening to visit the winners’ enclosure for a while. the latter gets another chance while Mackie Dee went very close over fences here last month and is another to consider.
