        Verdict

        This looks an above-average novice event with several having already shown useful form. Demons Rock has been getting closer and so has Zain Smarts. Brighton fourth Gotti is open to plenty of improvement and Expecting wasn’t disgraced over 6f here last month. Zalshah is a half-brother to three winners and led until approaching the final furlong when well backed on debut at Bath. Richard Hannon’s juveniles are always worth a second look here but INDIAN WARRIOR went close in a Class 3 contest here in May and any improvement on that would make him tough to beat.
