Verdict
Ballyfarsoon is back on a winning mark and finished closer in novice company at Doncaster on his first attempt at 3m. But DONTDELAY won a tougher race over fences at Hexham last month and, only 3lb higher reverting to the smaller obstacles, Micky Hammond’s charge looks worth sticking with. Quasha is looking to exploit a slide down the weights and wasn’t beaten far when only fourth at Market Rasen recently while Final Fling has won two of only three outings at this venue and arrives in better form than Border Victor, who scored off today’s mark over track and trip back in March.
