Verdict
Red Somerset recorded a hat-trick of selling race victories when scoring at Wolverhampton last week. However, he was all out to do so and his winning run may come to end here. MOYNAHAN was dropped into claiming company when last seen in November but never figured on unfavourable terms against higher rated rivals and Paul Cole's charge gets another chance in this lesser company. Aquilifer finished fourth in a handicap at Lingfield in January with April Fool behind but the latter re-opposes on better terms today and is fancied to reverse running.
