In depth

Verdict

Gordon Elliott’s Burn The Evidence will probably be a short-priced favourite having shown up well at Fairyhouse and Thurles at the end of last year. Brian Hughes rode Brompton Park at Carlisle but switches here to TFOU. Nicky Richards’ newcomer is by Derby winner Authorized and a half-brother to winners on the Flat and over hurdles so could be above average.
