    Verdict

    There's little between Arrowzone and Solo Hunter on official handicap marks. Both are preferred to Honiton Lace but still look pretty exposed and BIG ORANGE could prove best of these. He wasn't beaten far when sixth in a Newmarket maiden in October and Michael Bell's charge faces an easier task on his return to action. Drifter is a half-brother to three winners and won't have to be anything special to get involved on his racecourse debut.
