Verdict

River Dragon was a disappointing favourite at Southwell last time and Painted Sky didn't run any better on his recent return to the Flat despite showing good progress over hurdles last year. Categorical's only win on the level came way back in 2005 and Dan's Heir never threatened when fifth in last year's renewal. However, ZEFOOHA was winning over timber at Doncaster as recently as last month and has scored three times at this track on the Flat. Tim Walford's charge gets the vote in today's company with the remainder of the opposition all out of sorts.
