        In depth

        Verdict

        Lord Theo can get losses back, with Charlie Tipple, First Mate, Fealeview Lady and Snow Dancer a few more to consider. Lord Theo has had just the 12 career starts so far, and has started to slip down the weights this term. Nick Littmoden's charge was touched off on the line at Leicester eight days ago, and off his current mark should make a bold bid to go one better. Charlie Tipple caught the eye at York last time, and on breeding should not mind this step up in trip, while First Mate is having only his second outing of the year, and time will tell whether he is well handicapped or not. Fealeview Lady hung under pressure when third at Yarmouth, and was also third at Kempton last time, while Chester runner-up Snow Dancer drops back in trip, and is well drawn at least. For the winner we return to Lord Theo.
