In depth
Verdict
Tzunami has placed the last twice at Fontwell and has solid each-way claims again on his handicap debut but ELFRIDE (NAP) came good over course and distance last time with a bit in hand and should be able to shrug off a 5lb rise. Hilltown may be best of the rest in first-time cheekpieces, though He Is A Cracker couldn’t have done much more returning from a lengthy absence at Warwick.
