END ZONE was sold for 60,000gns at last month’s sales having won a novices race at Lingfield and has joined Roger Fell’s yard. There looks more to come over today’s trip and he gets the vote back in a handicap. Brunel's Boy finished runner-up over the minimum trip at Sandown and can figure while Bahuta Acha placed over track and trip recently and is back on a winning mark. Lucky Lodge is not badly treated on his winning form though saves his best for Newcastle nowadays and Nubough finally showed some improvement for a slide down the weights when fourth at the latter track.
