Verdict

RED FORCE ONE arrives in fine form and carries no penalty for last week's Redcar victory. He can score again. Dereham is chasing a hat-trick in this event and has been given a chance by the handicapper, whilst Lingfield winner Pfingstberg will be dangerous if allowed to set his own pace again.
