Verdict

This isn't a particularly strong race and FIRAK, who confirmed his well-being with an easy win between the flags 11 days ago, is taken to make a successful debut in this sphere. Zee Man's jumping is certainly no less of a concern following his recent fall at Fakenham and Zamparelli is the clear main danger.
