Verdict
RAYADOUR took advantage of a slide down the weights to score at Sedgefield last week. He's gone close under amateur riders on the Flat and gets the vote. Walter De La Mare finished third at Warwick with Joanna Mason on board earlier this year and can figure along with Musselburgh winner Newdane Dancer. Goodlukin Lucy scored over track and trip at this time last year and Dalstontosiloth posted a better effort at Sedgefield on his latest start.
