      Verdict

      ZESHOV won this in 2016 and was beaten only a head at last week’s meeting here. He finished in front of both Chinese Spirit and Majdool on that occasion and Jamie Gormley takes 5lb off his back today. Crazy Tornado was well beaten at Carlisle last time, despite escaping a penalty for an earlier win at Hamilton, and better was also expected from Here In The Dark on his latest start. Battle Commence and Kit Marlowe continue to struggle despite slipping down the weights.
