Verdict
The three newcomers will have to be very useful to handle the two penalised contenders with Lyn's Secret seen as best of the trio. However, choosing between the pair of winners is difficult as both delivered impressive debut performances. Boko Fittleworth ran his rivals ragged at Market Rasen when making all whilst CRACKER FACTORY travelled well throughout before quickening clear of his Aintree field. The latter was rated superior on the Flat and may possibly have more speed around this sharp track but is a far from confident choice.
