Verdict

ZAPPER CASS won with something to spare over C&D on New Year's Day and a 4lb penalty may not be enough to stop him following up if in similar mood. Third placed Warrior's Valley may get closer on the revised terms, while recent Lingfield winner George Thomas remains unexposed and could have a say if handling the surface. Followthesteps has run better of late than his finishing positions indicate and is not out of it, and Fair Alibi is another worth considering.
