Verdict

Brighton scorer Shamshon should have plenty to say again in this field despite being raised 3lb and commands respect but the one that appeals most on these terms is ZAC BROWN. He has course-winning form in the book and has dropped 6lb below the mark he achieved his previous turf success from. He's been running nice races on the AW of late without scoring and can take advantage of this chance to shine. Former C&D winner Englishman is struggling right now and so Paddy Power appeals as more of a danger today.
